Setup

1. Carefully tear apart the aluminum foil paper from the capsule. This exposes the desiccant beads.
2. Ensure the capsule is intact and the desiccant beads are visible. The beads are typically orange when fresh.

Operating Instructions

To effectively dry your hearing aids, follow these steps:

1. Place the prepared drying capsule into a suitable drying jar or case designed for hearing aids.
2. Ensure your hearing aids are clean and free from debris before placing them into the drying jar. Open the battery doors of your hearing aids to allow for better air circulation and moisture absorption.
3. Place your hearing aids into the drying jar, ensuring they do not directly touch the desiccant capsule. Close the lid of the drying jar securely.
4. Leave your hearing aids in the drying jar overnight, or for at least 6-8 hours, to allow the desiccant to absorb moisture.

Maintenance

The drying capsule contains desiccant beads that change color as they absorb moisture, indicating when replacement is needed. When the orange beads turn a pale yellow or white, the capsule has absorbed its maximum moisture and should be replaced with a new one.

Troubleshooting

• Hearing aids still damp: Ensure the drying capsule is fresh (orange color) and the drying jar lid is securely closed. Also, verify that the hearing aid battery doors are open during the drying process.
• Capsule not changing color: If the capsule remains orange after prolonged use, it might not be exposed to sufficient moisture, or the drying jar might not be sealed properly.
