Maintenance
Regular Cleaning
Clean your hearing aids daily to remove dirt, earwax, and moisture. Use a soft, dry cloth or a specialised hearing aid cleaning tool to gently wipe the surface. Avoid using liquids or cleaning agents that can damage the device. For in-depth cleaning, use a small brush to gently remove debris from the receiver and microphone ports. Always handle the device with clean, dry hands to prevent transferring oil or grime.
Charging Care
Always place your rechargeable hearing aids in their charging dock when not in use, especially overnight. Ensure the charger is free from dust and plugged into a stable power source. Check the LED indicators regularly to confirm proper charging. Avoid charging the device in overly hot, cold, or damp areas—the ideal storage temperature is room temperature in a dry environment.
Moisture Management
While the device features IP68 water resistance, it’s still essential to manage moisture exposure carefully. After exposure to sweat, rain, or humidity (which is especially common in many regions of Bangladesh), dry your hearing aids with a soft cloth and allow them to air out before charging. Using a hearing aid dehumidifier or drying box overnight can significantly extend the life of the device by keeping internal components moisture-free.
Wax Guard Replacement
Earwax buildup can block sound output and degrade performance. The Starkey Evolv AI 1600 ITE R (Wireless) comes with replaceable wax guards. Check the wax filter regularly (typically every 1–2 weeks) and replace it when necessary. Your audiologist can show you how to safely change wax guards at home.
Protect from Physical Damage
Handle your hearing aids with care to avoid drops or impact damage. When inserting or removing them, do so over a soft surface like a table with a cloth, and avoid applying too much pressure. When not in use, store them in a secure, dry case to prevent dust buildup or accidental damage from pets or children.
Microphone and Receiver Port Maintenance
Use a soft brush or vent cleaner to gently clean the microphone and receiver openings. Never insert anything sharp or use excessive force, as this could damage internal components.
Thrive App and Firmware Updates
Keep the Thrive Hearing Control app updated for access to the latest features and performance improvements. Occasionally, firmware updates for the hearing aid itself may be pushed through the app—be sure to complete these as instructed to maintain optimal device function.
Regular Professional Checkups
Schedule a professional cleaning and performance check at least once every 6 to 12 months. The National Hearing Care Centre in Dhanmondi, Dhaka, offers these services and can assist with adjustments, software updates, and replacement parts if needed.
Storage Best Practices
When not in use, always store your hearing aids in their designated charging case or a clean, dry container. Avoid leaving them in your pocket, purse, or exposed surfaces where dust, debris, or accidental damage can occur.
