This is not hearing protection. You should remove this device if you experience overly loud
sounds, whether short or long lasting. if you're in a loud place, you should use the right kind
of hearing protection instead of wearing this device. In general, if you would use ear plugs in
a loud place, you should remove this device and use ear plugs.
You might need medical help if a piece gets stuck in your ear. If any part of your hearing aid, like
the eartip, gets stuck in your ear, and you can't easily remove it with your fingers, get medical
help as soon as you can. You should not try to use tweezers or cotton swabs because they can
push the part farther into your ear, injuring your eardrum or ear canal, possibly seriously.
The sound output should not be uncomfortable or painful. You should turn down the volume or
remove the device if the sound output is uncomfortably loud or painful. If you consistently need to
turn the volume down, you may need to further adjust your device.
