Warnings

More info

You should familiarize yourself fully

with the following general warnings

before using your hearing aid for your

personal safety and to ensure correct

use.

Please note that a hearing aid will not

restore normal hearing and will not

prevent or improve a hearing impair-

ment resulting from organic condi-

tions. Furthermore, note that in most

cases, infrequent use of a hearing aid

does not permit a user to attain full

benefit from it.

Consult your Hearing Care Profes-

sional if you experience unexpected

operations or events with your hear-

ing instrument.

Usage of hearing aids

• Hearing aids should be used only

as directed and adjusted by your

hearing care professional. Misuse

can result in sudden and perma-

nent hearing loss.

• Never allow others to wear your

hearing aid as incorrect usage

could cause permanent damage to

their hearing.

Choking hazards & risk of

swallowing batteries

• Hearing aids, their parts, and bat-

teries should be kept out of reach

of children and anyone who might

swallow these items, or otherwise

cause injury to themselves.

• Batteries have occasionally been

mistaken for pills. Therefore, check

your medicine carefully before

swallowing any pills.

• Most hearing aids can be supplied

with a tamper-resistant battery

drawer upon request. This is

strongly recommended for infants,

small children and people with

learning difficulties.

• Children below 36 months must

always use a tamper-resistant

battery drawer. This option is

available in BTE, miniBTE, RITE and

miniRITE hearing aids.

If a battery or hearing aid is swal-

lowed, see a doctor immediately and

contact the National Poison Center

at 1-800-222-1222 or National Bat-

tery Ingestion Hotline at

202-625-3333

Battery use

• Always use batteries recommend-

ed by your hearing care profession-

al. Batteries of low quality may leak

and cause bodily harm.

• Never attempt to recharge your

batteries and never dispose of bat-

teries by burning them. There is a

risk that the batteries will explode.
