Rechargeable Signia hearing aids, which use lithium-ion batteries, can last a full day (up to 24 hours) on a single charge under typical use conditions, including streaming audio from other devices. These rechargeable batteries themselves typically last for several years before they might need replacing, depending on usage and charging habits.

Rechargeable batteries in Signia hearing aids generally cannot be replaced by the user. These batteries are built into the hearing aids and are designed to last for the lifespan of the hearing aids themselves, which is typically several years.

However, if the rechargeable batteries stop holding a charge or experience other issues, the hearing aids will need to be serviced by a professional:

Professional Replacement: If the rechargeable battery needs replacing, it usually has to be done by a qualified hearing care professional or through the manufacturer. This ensures that the battery is properly replaced and the hearing aid is maintained without damage.

Warranty and Service: Check if your hearing aids are still under warranty, as battery replacement might be covered. Even if not covered, it’s advisable to have replacements done professionally to ensure your device continues to function properly.

Identify the Charger Type: Determine if you are using a standard charger, a portable charger, or a charger case for your Signia hearing aids.

1. Connect the Charger to Power:
Locate the power cable that came with your charger.
Connect one end of the power cable to the charger and the other end to a suitable power outlet. Some chargers may use a USB cable that can be plugged into a computer or a USB wall adapter.

2. Verify Connection:
Most Signia chargers will have an indicator light that turns on or changes color when connected to power and is charging correctly.
Check the user manual for specific indicators for your model, as the light may blink or stay steady to indicate charging status.

3. Charging the Hearing Aids:
While the charger itself does not hold a charge and needs to be connected to power to function, some models come with built-in batteries that can be charged and used to charge the hearing aids several times without plugging in. For these models:
Charge the charger until it is fully charged, which is usually indicated by a change in the indicator light (from blinking to steady or changing color).
You can then use the charger to charge your hearing aids multiple times on the go.

4. Maintenance:
Keep the charger clean and free of debris to ensure good contact with the hearing aids.
Avoid overcharging by unplugging the charger once it and the hearing aids are fully charged, if applicable.

Remove the old dome:
Gently pull the dome off the speaker or earpiece. Be careful not to damage the speaker wire or the receiver.

Attach the new dome:
Take a new dome that fits your model and gently push it onto the speaker or receiver until it's snugly fitted.

Remove the dome:
Detach the dome from the hearing aid to ensure thorough cleaning.

Clean gently:
Use a soft, dry cloth or brush to clean the dome. Avoid using water or cleaning fluids unless specified by Signia that it’s safe for your specific model.

Reattach the dome:
Once clean and dry, reattach the dome to the hearing aid receiver.

Check existing packaging:
If you have the original packaging or documents, they may list the dome size.

Measure the diameter:
Use a ruler or a measuring tape to measure the diameter of the dome at its widest part.

Consult a Hearing Care Professional:
If in doubt, consult your audiologist or hearing aid provider who can measure and recommend the appropriate size dome for your hearing needs and comfort.

General recommendation:
It is typically recommended to replace hearing aid domes every 2-3 months or sooner if they become stiff, discolored, or damaged.

Based on usage:
Frequent users or those in more dusty or dirty environments might need to replace domes more often to ensure optimal hearing aid performance and hygiene.
Regular maintenance and replacement of domes are crucial for the longevity and effectiveness of your hearing aids.

If you have any more questions or need specific details about your model, consulting the user manual or speaking with a hearing care professional can provide tailored advice.

Remove the old filter:

• Locate the filter on your hearing aid. It’s typically at the end of the earpiece.
• Use a tool provided by Signia or a small tweezer to gently remove the old filter.

Insert the new filter:

• Take a new filter, usually provided on a stick or with a tool that helps with installation.
• Align it with the opening and press it into place gently but firmly.

Replace the wax guards every 2 weeks or more frequently if there is visible wax accumulation, or if you experience any diminishment in sound quality.

Maintaining the filters and wax guards of your hearing aids is crucial for their performance and longevity.

Regular replacements prevent wax and debris from damaging the internal components of the hearing aids, ensuring optimal sound clarity and function.

Always have a spare set of filters and wax guards on hand, and follow the specific guidelines provided by Signia for your hearing aid model.

Remove the old tube:Detach the tube from the hearing aid and the earmold or dome. This usually involves gently pulling the tube from the earmold and the hook on the hearing aid.

Attach the new tube: Insert the new tube onto the earmold first, then attach the other end to the hook on the hearing aid. Ensure it fits snugly and securely.
