Power instrument
Special care should be exercised in
selecting, fitting and using a hearing
aid whose maximum sound pressure
capability exceeds 132 dB SPL (IEC 711),
as there may be risk of impairing the re-
maining hearing of the hearing aid user.
For information on whether your
hearing aid is a power instrument, see
the model overview.
Possible side effects
Hearing aids and earpieces may cause
an accelerated accumulation of earwax.
The otherwise non-allergenic materials
used in hearing aids may in rare cases
lead to a skin irritation or other side
effects.
Please seek consultation with a
physician if these conditions occur.

Interference
The hearing aid has been thoroughly
tested for interference, in accordance
with the most stringent international
standards. However, interference be-
tween the hearing aid and other devices
(e.g. some mobile telephones, citizens
band systems, and shop alarm systems,
and other devices) may occur. If this oc-
curs, increase the distance between the
hearing aid and the interfering device.
Use on aircraft
Your hearing aid contains Bluetooth. On
board an aircraft, flight mode must be
activated, unless Bluetooth is specially
permitted by the flight personnel.
Connection to external equipment
The safety of the hearing aid when
connected to external equipment (via
auxiliary input cable, via USB cable, or
directly), is determined by the external
equipment. When connected to external
equipment plugged into a wall outlet,
this equipment must comply with
IEC-62368 (or IEC-60065, IEC-60950
until June 20, 2019) or equivalent safety
standards.
