Before Use
Safety precautions
(Continued)
Before wearing a hearing aid, have your ear
examined by a licensed physician, or get a
hearing evaluation from a hearing instrument
specialist or an audiologist.
If the wrong type of a hearing aid is
selected, or a hearing aid is used in an
improper manner, it can cause ear or
hearing damage.
CAUTION
Ask the dispenser for a proper fit.
Inappropriate fitting may result in damage to
your hearing. Have your hearing aid fitted to
your individual needs.
Confirm that the hearing instrument is
completely free of burrs and cracks.
Rugged projection like sharp edges and
rough burrs protruding from the surface
of the hearing instrument can cause cuts
and nicks to the skin.
· When cleaning your hearing aid, wipe it gently
with a soft cloth. Never use organic solvents such
as alcohol, paint thinner, or benzene. Failure to
heed this caution may result in deformation of the
hearing instrument or cracking on the surface.
