How to clean Phonak hearing aids

Keeping your hearing aids clean is essential for maintaining both hygiene and sound quality—especially when it comes to premium devices like Phonak. Dust, moisture, earwax, and daily wear can all affect performance if not managed properly. At Japebo, we help you extend the life of your devices with original cleaning tools and accessories made specifically for Phonak hearing aids.

How do I clean Phonak hearing aids correctly?

The process is simple when done regularly. Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe down the outer surface of your hearing aids every evening. Avoid water, alcohol, or household cleaning products, as these can damage sensitive components. For harder-to-reach areas like microphone openings or charging contacts, use a Phonak-approved cleaning brush.

If you’re wondering how to clean Phonak Audéo hearing aids, the steps are similar—just keep in mind that Audéo devices typically come with receiver-in-canal (RIC) designs. This means you’ll also need to clean the speaker unit and tubing. Remove the dome carefully, then use a cleaning wire or brush to clear out any wax or dirt in the sound tube. Always check that the receiver tip is clean and free of blockages.
