General warnings
1. Consult a hearing healthcare professional if you discover a foreign object in your ear canal, if you
experience skin irritation, or if excessive ear wax accumulates with the use of the hearing instrument.
2. Different types of radiation, from e.g. NMR, MRI, or CT scanners, may damage hearing instruments. It
is recommended not to wear hearing instruments during these or other similar procedures. Other types
of radiation, such as burglar alarms, room surveillance systems, radio equipment, mobile telephones,
contain less energy and will not damage hearing instruments. However, they have the potential to
momentarily affect the sound quality or temporarily create strange sounds from hearing instruments.
3. Do not wear hearing instruments in mines, oil fields, or other explosive areas unless those areas are
certified for hearing instrument use.
4. Do not allow others to use your hearing instruments. This may cause damage to the hearing instruments
or to the hearing of the other individual.
5. Instrument usage by children or mentally challenged persons should be supervised at all times to
ensure their safety. The hearing instrument contains small parts that could be swallowed by children.
6. Please be mindful not to leave children unsupervised with this hearing instrument.
7. Hearing instruments should be used only as prescribed by your hearing healthcare professional.
Incorrect use may result in hearing loss.
8. External devices connected to the electrical input must be safe according to the requirements of
IEC 60601-1-1, IEC 60065, or IEC 60950-1, as appropriate (wired connection; for example, HI-PRO-,
SpeedLink).
9. If instrument is broken, do not use.
10. Be careful when boarding flights, to remember to deactivate the wireless functionality. Turn off your
wireless functionality by using the flight mode in areas where radio frequency emission is prohibited.
