Purchasing hearing aids allows customers to invest in a better quality of life, improved self-confidence, better social interactions, and improved communication. Although Axon hearing aids are reliable, like any piece of technology, their performance depends on how well they’re cared for. Your Axon hearing aids will last five years in most cases, even in Pakistan’s extreme climate, if you practice good maintenance.

This guide, based on tips from experts, offers ways to help you clean, retain, and protect your Axon hearing aids.

Why Proper Hearing Aid Maintenance Matters

Hearing aids are consistently exposed to sweat, dust, humidity, and earwax. In Pakistan, high moisture and temperature levels can even further shorten the lifespan of the hearing aids. Poor maintenance leads to compounding issues that can be even frustrating for the user, if the hearing aids go low on volume, if sound of the aids breaks, or in the worst case they completely break.

Regular cleaning helps:

Regular maintenance helps to ensure that internal damage doesn’t occur, it helps identify issues before they arise, and pushes back a better sound to be the most expensive repairs.

The difference that simple habits and preventative measures can have are astounding.

Daily Cleaning: Small Steps, Big Impact

Daily maintenance and cleaning will take you less than five minutes, and in return you will prevent all common hearing aids issues, and problems.

Add this daily routine:

• Use a dry cloth to wipe the hearing aid
• Clean the sound outlet from wax that you can see
• Use a dry soft cloth to clean the microphone(check to see if it needs to be cleaned). Dust is okay to clean, but water, alcohol, and tissues are a no go, as moisture is a hearing aid killer

Don’t let this notify you to clean your hearing aids as you need to do a deeper clean once a week as well to keep those hearing aids performing well.

Weekly Deep Cleaning for Better Performance

Use your hearing aid cleaning brush to remove built-up dirt from the hearing aid as well as the vents. Make sure to look at the tubing and any earmolds that may need to be cleaned. If you have a Behind-the-Ear Axon hearing aid, carefully detach the earmold and do a separate clean on it. Allow it to dry thoroughly before you reattach it.

Managing Earwax the Right Way

Reduced sound may be due to a buildup of earwax. If earwax is left alone, it can lead to damage to the receiver, making it worse.

Here’s what experts suggest:

• Don’t go digging with pointed objects such as pins, toothpicks, or tweezers as this can worsen the issue.
• If your ear wax buildup is frequent, make sure to see and ENT specialist get it professionally cleaned to remove the earwax safely without any damage to the hearing aid.

Protect Your Hearing Aid from Moisture

Moisture can be a hearing aid killer. It’s also a reason why so many people in many areas of Pakistan are at high risk. Ears sweating due to the hot climate can damage the internal components of the hearing aids. Sweat and moisture are often a systematic risk that many people must face in the summer.

Smart moisture protection tips:

• Before bathing, take out your hearing aids.
• Do not wear hearing aids when sweating.
• Put hearing aids in a dry container each night.

It is extremely recommended to use a hearing aid dehumidifier. Many long-term customers at BuyWell.pk add dehumidifiers to their care routines to protect their Axon devices.

Best Practices for Charging and Battery Care

Hearing aid lifespan is impacted by how batteries are handled.

For hearing aids that have batteries:

• Turn off when not in use.
• Leave the battery door open at night.
• Batteries should be replaced when the sound gets weaker.

For rechargeable Axon hearing aids:

• Batteries should be fully charged before first use.
• Do not leave hearing aids on the charger for a long time.
• Always use the charger that came packaged with the hearing aids.
• Good battery practices avoid corrosion and other power issues.

Safe Storage Habits That Prevent Damage

Where hearing aids are stored is important, and is often overlooked by users.

Hearing aids should always be stored in:

• Cool and dry areas
• Not in direct sunlight
• Out of reach of children and pets

Hearing aids should never be left on countertops, beds, or around sinks. Hearing aids are at risk for damage from falls and exposure to water.

• Leaving batteries in hearing aids that aren’t being used.
• Ignoring the aids when they become difficult to hear through.
• Storing aids in a place that has high humidity like a bathroom.
