C-Guard™

Innovative wax guard technology

User Guide

Real protection

With C-Guard from Siemens you have received

the next generation of wax protection. The only

wax guard to use the latest in wax proofing tech-

nology, C-Guard effectively seals the sound outlet

with a membrane barrier to protect it from cerumen

and moisture. It works without affecting the hear-

ing instrument response because the membrane

is acoustically transparent.

C-Guard –

The next generation wax guard

Congratulations!

Cerumen that has built up externally on your

C-Guard can be easily removed with a soft tissue.

For best results, it is recommended to change your

C-Guard approximately every three months.

Replacement is very simple. A special tool is enclosed.

Good lighting is all that’s needed to determine if your

C-Guard needs replacing.

General Precautions:

쐍Inspect the membrane for integrity daily.

쐍Clean as necessary with soft tissue.

쐍Never use brushes or toothpick for cleaning.

쐍Never use running water or immerse the hearing instrument.

Easy to maintain, easy to replace

C-Guard

Cerumen on the C-Guard membrane

might affect the sound quality.

Listen for any changes. In case wax has built-up,

it can be easily removed with a soft tissue.

Precaution:

쐍Never use pressure or rotating action while cleaning!

Cleaning Instruction

쐍Clean the C-Guard using a soft tissue.

쐍No other tools are required.

쐍Place a tissue around your finger

and use a gentle back-and-forth cleaning motion.

Replacement and Removal Tool Instruction

쐍A special ergonomic tool was designed

for easy and efficient replacement operation.

쐍One side for removal. One for replacement.

After cleaning, hold the C-Guard to a light –

if light doesn’t reflect off of the C-Guard, then

a replacement is necessary. It’s that simple.

A replacement is also necessary, if the sound

quality hasn’t improved after cleaning.
