Usage of hearing aids
Hearing aids should be used only as
directed and adjusted by your hearing
care professional. Misuse can result in
sudden and permanent hearing loss.
Never allow others to wear your hearing
aid, as incorrect usage could cause
permanent damage to their hearing.
Choking hazards & risk of swallowing
small parts
Hearing aids and their parts should be
kept out of reach of children and anyone
who might swallow these items or
otherwise cause injury to themselves.
If a hearing aid or small part is
swallowed, see a doctor immediately.
Explosives
The hearing aid is safe to use under
normal usage conditions. The hearing
aid has not been tested for compliance
with international standards concerning
explosive environments.
Therefore, do not use the hearing aid in
environments with danger of explosions
e.g. mines, oxygen rich environments
or areas where flammable anaesthetics
are handled.
