General warnings
Rechargeable battery (miniBTE R only)
Do not attempt to open the hearing aid, as
it may damage the battery. Never attempt
to replace the battery. If the battery needs
replaced, please return your device to the
supplier. The service guarantee is void if
there are signs of tampering.
In case of battery leakage do not wear or
carry your hearing aid, as it may cause skin
irritation due to acids leaking from the
battery. If your skin has been in contact
with the leaked battery acids, use a wet
cloth to wipe it off and ensure no acid is left
on your skin. If you experience skin irritation,
consult your doctor. For further handling
instructions for your hearing aid consult
your hearing care professional. The safety
of recharging batteries using a USB
connector is determined by the external
signal source. When connected to external
equipment plugged into a power socket, this
equipment must comply with IEC 62368-1 or
equivalent safety standards.

Dysfunction
Be aware of the possibility that your
hearing aids may stop working without
notice. Keep this in mind when you depend
on warning sounds (e.g. when you are
in traffic). The hearing aids may stop
functioning, for instance, if the batteries
have expired or if the tubing is blocked by
moisture or earwax.
Active implants
Your hearing aids have been thoroughly
tested and characterized for human health
according to international standards for
human exposure (Specific Absorption Ratio
- SAR), induced electromagnetic power and
voltages into the human body.
The exposure values are well below
international accepted safety limits for
SAR, induced electromagnetic power and
voltages into the human body defined in the
standards for human health and coexistence
with active medical implants, such as
pacemakers and heart defibrillators.
