Slim tubes and domes
You should have the slim
tubes and domes replaced
by your hearing healthcare
professional approximately
every three to six months or
when they become stiff,
brittle, or discolored.
Clean the domes daily with a damp cloth.
You should also clean the slim tubes
periodically, with the cleaning pin provided,
when you begin to notice debris in and
around the tubes.
1. Hold the slim tube in one hand and the
hearing aid in the other hand.
2. Gently turn the hearing aid until it
detaches from the slim tube.
3. Use a damp cloth to clean the outside of
the slim tube and dome.

4. Remove the dome from the slim tube by
pulling gently, before cleaning the slim
tube.
5. Using the black
cleaning pin provided
in the kit, gently insert
the cleaning pin where
the slim tube attaches
to the hearing aid and
push the pin all the way through the tube.
Note: The slim tubes and domes should
never be rinsed or submerged in water as
water drops may become lodged in the
tube, block sound or damage the electrical
components of the hearing aid.
6. Once the slim tube has been cleaned,
reattach it by gently turning the hearing aid
onto the slim tube.
7. Reattach the dome to the slim tube by
gently pushing it back onto the threading
at the end of the tube.
