Warnings
The intended use of hearing aids is to
amplify and transmit sound to the ears and
hereby compensate for impaired hearing.
The hearing aids (specially programmed for
each hearing loss) must only be used by the
intended person. They should not be used
by any other person as they could damage
hearing.
Hearing aids should only be used as
directed by your physician or hearing
healthcare professional.
Hearing aids will not restore normal
hearing and will not prevent or improve a
hearing impairment resulting from organic
conditions.
Do not use your hearing aids in explosion
hazard areas.
Allergic reactions to hearing aids are unlikely.
However, if you experience itching, redness,
soreness, inflammation or a burning
sensation in or around your ears, inform
6
your hearing healthcare professional and
contact your physician.
In the unlikely case that any parts remain
in the ear canal after the removal of the
hearing aid, contact a physician immediately.
Remove your hearing aids for CT and
MRI scans or for other electromagnetic
procedures.
Special care should be exercised in wearing
hearing aids when maximum sound
pressure levels exceed 132 decibels. There
may be a risk of impairing your remaining
hearing. Speak with your hearing healthcare
professional to ensure the maximum output
of your hearing aids is suitable for your
particular hearing loss.
Magnet and battery warnings
Never leave hearing aids, batteries or
magnets where small children and pets
can reach them. Never put hearing aids or
batteries in your mouth. If a hearing aid
or battery is swallowed, call a physician
immediately.
