General warnings
1. Consult a hearing care professional if you think there may be a foreign object in your ear canal,
if you experience skin irritation, or if excessive earwax accumulates with the use of the hearing
aid.
2. Different types of radiation, from e.g. NMR, MRI, or CT scanners, may damage hearing aids. It is
recommended not to wear hearing aids during these or other similar procedures. Other types
of radiation, such as burglar alarms, room surveillance systems, radio equipment, mobile tel-
ephones, contain less energy and will not damage hearing aids. However, they have the potential
to momentarily affect the sound quality or temporarily create undesired sounds from hearing
aids.
3. Do not wear hearing aids in mines, oil fields, or other explosive areas unless those areas are
certified for hearing aid use.
4. Do not allow others to use your hearing aids.
5. Hearing aid usage by children or mentally disabled persons should be supervised at all times to
ensure their safety. The hearing aid contains small parts that could be swallowed by children.
Please be mindful not to leave children unsupervised with this hearing aid.
6. Hearing aids should be used only as prescribed by your hearing care professional. Incorrect use
may result in hearing loss.
7. Warning to hearing care professionals: Special care should be exercised in selecting and fitting
hearing aids with maximum sound pressure level that exceeds 132 dB SPL with an IEC 60711:1981
occluded ear simulator. The remaining hearing may risk further impairment.
8. Turn off your wireless functionality by using the flight mode in areas where radio frequency
emission is prohibited.
