If the magnet is swallowed, contact your
physician immediately.
The magnet may affect some medical
devices or electronic systems. Always keep
the magnet (or the telephone equipped with
the magnet) at least 30 cm (12") away from
pacemakers, credit cards, floppy disks or
other magnetically sensitive devices.
Too high distortion during dialing or
phoning may mean that the phone handset
is stressed by the magnet. To avoid any
damage, please move the magnet to
another place on the telephone receiver.
Battery warnings
Never leave hearing aids or batteries 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.

Precautions
The use of hearing aids is only part of
hearing rehabilitation; auditory training and
lip reading instruction may be required as
well.
In most cases, infrequent use of hearing
aids does not provide full benefit. Once you
have become accustomed to your hearing
aids, wear your hearing aids everyday all
day.
Your hearing aids use the most modern
components to provide the best possible
sound quality in every listening situation.
However, communication devices such as
digital cell phones can create interference
(a buzzing sound) in hearing aids. If you
experience interference from a cell phone
being used close by, you can minimize this
interference in a number of ways. Switch
your hearing aids to another program, turn
your head in a different direction or locate
the cell phone and move away from it.
