General warnings and precautions
General warnings
1. Consult a hearing care professional if you think there may be a foreign object in your ear canal, if you
experience skin irritation, or if excessive earwax accumulates with the use of the hearing aid.
2. Different types of radiation, from, for example, NMR, MRI, or CT scanners, may damage hearing aids. It is
recommended not to wear hearing aids during these or other similar procedures. Other types of radiation,
such as burglar alarms, room surveillance systems, radio equipment, and mobile telephones, contain less
energy and will not damage hearing aids. However, they have the potential to momentarily affect the sound
quality or temporarily create undesired sounds from the hearing aids.
3. Do not wear hearing aids in mines, oil fields, or other explosive areas unless those areas are certified for
hearing aid use.
4. Do not allow others to use your hearing aids.
5. Hearing aid usage by children or mentally disabled persons should be supervised at all times to ensure their
safety. The hearing aid contains small parts that could be swallowed by children. Please be careful not to
leave children unsupervised with this hearing aid.
6. Hearing aids should be used only as prescribed by your hearing care professional. Incorrect use may result in
sudden and permanent hearing loss.
7. Turn off your wireless functionality by using the flight mode in areas where radio frequency emission is
prohibited.
8. If a hearing aid is modified or broken, do not use it.
