when you are in traffi c or otherwise dependent on warning sounds.
Interference
Your HearIt Mobile has been thoroughly tested for interference, according to the most stringent international standards. But new
technical developments constantly bring new products into society, and some may emit electromagnetic radiation, leading to
unforeseen interference in HearIt Mobile. Examples include induction cooking appliances, shop alarm systems, mobile telephones,
fax machines, personal computer devices, X-rays, computer tomography etc.
Your hearing instruments are designed to comply with the most stringent Standards of International Electromagnetic Compatibility.
However HearIt Mobile might cause interference with other medical devices. Such interference can also be caused by radio
signals, power line disturbances, airport metal detectors, electromagnetic fi elds from other medical devices and electrostatic
