Abstract: A configuration and an associated method dry a hearing device. The configuration includes a heating unit for generating warm air, at least one hearing device, a first humidity sensor of the hearing device for determining first ambient humidity measured values, a signal output unit of the hearing device for outputting the first ambient humidity measured values, a signal recording unit for recording the first ambient humidity measured values, and a control unit for controlling the heating unit in dependence on the first ambient humidity measured values. Accordingly the drying process can be controlled precisely by the heating device in respect of duration and temperature.

Abstract: A hearing aid has a hearing aid housing and an associated method for operating the hearing aid. The hearing aid contains a first humidity sensor which determines a first ambient humidity and a modification unit, which modifies an operating state and/or an operating parameter of the hearing aid in dependence on the first ambient humidity detected. The hearing aid takes account of the effect of the humidity of the environment on the hearing aid properties and takes measures to compensate for the humidity.

Abstract: A method for determining moisture on a covering of a microphone opening of a hearing aid housing without additional components includes determination of an acoustic parameter originating from an earpiece in a microphone signal of a microphone disposed below the covering, comparison of the determined acoustic parameter with a reference parameter characteristic of moisture on the covering, and emission of a moisture signal if the determined acoustic parameter lies within a predefinable tolerance range of the reference parameter. An associated hearing aid and a computer program product for implementing the method, are also provided.
