Telephone Use

Your hearing instrument allows
you to use the telephone as you
ordinarily do. Hold the phone up
to your ear as you normally would.
If you experience discomfort
from the dome pressing in your
ear canal, you may need a different size sound tube.
In this case contact your hearing care professional.

Repairs

If your hearing instrument malfunctions, it must be
repaired by your hearing care professional or by a
qualified tech nician. Do not attempt to open the
case of the hearing instrument since this would in-
validate the warranty. If your hearing instrument
requires service, please contact your hearing care
professional for assistance.

General Precautions

• Consult a physician if you find a foreign object in
your ear canal, if you experience skin irritation or if
excessive ear wax accumulates with the use of the
hearing instrument.
• Different types of radiation, e.g. from NMR or CT
scanners, may damage the hearing instrument There-
fore, do not wear the hearing instrument during
these or other corresponding scanning procedures.
Other types of radiation (burglary alarms, room sur-
veillance systems, radio equipment, mobile telepho-
nes, etc) will not damage the hearing instrument.
They could, however, momentarily affect the sound
quality or create strange sounds from the hearing in-
struments.
• Warning: Do not wear the hearing instrument in mi-
nes or other explosive areas, unless those areas are
certified for hearing instrument use.
• Keep the instrument away from children under the
age of 3 as it contains small parts which may present
a choking hazard.
