Warnings related to power hearing aids
•
A power hearing aid can produce very loud sound to compensate for a severe or profound hearing
loss. Therefore, there is risk of further impairing the remaining hearing.
•
Your hearing aids have been customized to amplify soft and loud sounds according to your particular
needs. If the amplification seems too loud or you suspect the hearing aid is malfunctioning (e.g., you
hear distorted or unusual sound), contact your hearing care professional. A malfunctioning hearing aid
can damage your hearing.
•
In general, exposure to loud sounds can damage your hearing. This could be loud music or loud
environments. You can best protect your hearing by reducing exposure to loud sound and
environments or by using hearing protection.
CAUTION:
•
Use your hearing aids as your hearing care professional recommends. Incorrect use may damage
your hearing.
•
Do not use a broken or modified hearing aid. It may not work properly and may be harmful to your
hearing. It may also cause scratches or sores due to sharp edges.
•
Use only original consumables from the manufacturer (e.g., wax guards).
•
Use only accessories intended for use with your hearing aids. Consult your hearing aid professional for
more information.
