Stop using the

MD

HearingAid

®

LUX

and consult a physician if:

WARNING TO HEARING AID DISPENSERS

• Hearing in one or both ears

worsens.

• Hearing does not improve while

using the

LUX

.

• Skin irritation develops in or

around your ear canal.

• Your ear becomes occluded with

excessive ear wax.

• You develop an infection of your

ear or ear canal.

Special care should be exercised in selecting and fitting a hearing aid whose

maximum sound pressure level exceeds 132 decibels because there may be
risk of impairing the remaining hearing of the hearing aid user.
A hearing aid will not restore normal hearing and will not prevent or improve a
hearing impairment resulting from organic conditions. In most cases infrequent

use of a hearing aid does not permit a user to attain full benefit from it. The

use of hearing aids is only part of hearing rehabilitation and may need to be
supplemented by auditory training and instruction in lip reading.
