Active implants
• Oticon shows caution and advise to follow the guideline as recommended by manufac-
turers of implantable defibrillators and pacemakers regarding use of mobile phones.
• If you wear an active implant, then keep the hearing instruments more than 15 cm
away from the implant e.g. do not carry them in a breast pocket. If you have an active
brain implant, please contact the manufacturer of your implantable device for informa-
tion about the risk of disturbance.
• The MultiTool has a built-in magnet. If you have an implantable device, such as
pacemakers or defibrillators, the MultiTool should not be carried in a breast pocket
or near the chest.
Explosives
• The power source in your hearing instrument has insufficient energy to cause fire
in normal conditions of use. The hearing instrument has not been tested for compli-
ancewith international standards concerning explosive atmospheres. It is recommend-
ed not to use your hearing instruments in areas where there is a danger of explosions.
