X-ray, CT, MR, PET scanning, and

Remove your hearing aid before X-ray,
CT/MR/PET scanning, electrotherapy,

fields.
Heat and chemicals
The hearing aid must never be exposed
to extreme heat, e.g. left inside a parked
car in the sun.
The hearing aid must not be dried in
microwave ovens or other ovens.
The chemicals in cosmetics, hairspray,
perfume, aftershave lotion, suntan
lotion, and insect repellent can damage
the hearing aid. Always remove your
hearing aid before applying such prod-
ucts and allow time to dry before use.
Power instrument
Special care should be exercised when
selecting, fitting and using a hearing
aid when the maximum sound pressure
capability exceeds 132 dB SPL (IEC 711),
as there may be risk of impairing the re-
maining hearing of the hearing aid user.
For information on whether your
hearing aid is a power instrument,
