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
your hearing healthcare professional and
contact your physician.
In the unlikely case that any parts remain
in the ear canal aer the removal of the
hearing aid, contact a physician immediately.
Remove your hearing aids for CT and MRI
scansor 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.

8 9
The magnet may aect 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 or other
magnetically sensitive devices.
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 benet. 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 dierent direction or locate
the cell phone and move away from it.
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.
Note to hearing healthcare professional
Domes should never be tted on patients
with perforated eardrums, exposed middle
ear cavities, or surgically altered ear
canals. In the case of such a condition, we
recommend to use a customized earmold.
Labeling
The serial number and year of manufacture
are located inside the battery door.
