Battery life will depend on how often and how long the hearing aids are used to stream media, as well as the severity of your hearing loss. The average person will get sixty hours of use from one size 312 battery. This is calculated based on sixteen hours of daily wear with eight hours of AutoSense OS™ 3.0, four hours of Bluetooth streaming, and four hours of TV Connector usage. Without any wireless streaming, the user will get 83 hours of battery life out of one size 312 battery (approximately one week based on an average wear time of 12 hours daily).
To clean the hearing aids, remove them from the ear and wipe them with a clean, dry cloth or C&C wipe. Open the battery door, turn the hearing aid upside down so the battery compartment is facing the floor and use a small, soft-bristled brush to clear the push button, microphone ports and battery compartment of dust and debris. When not in use, keep the battery door open to circulate air through the internal circuitry and conserve battery life. If applicable, periodically change the wax trap to ensure sound can exit the hearing aid. The hearing aids can be stored overnight in a case or a specially-made drying kit.
