Please read the information on the following pages before 
using your hearing aid.

A hearing aid will not restore normal hearing and will not 
prevent or improve a hearing impairment resulting from 
organic conditions. Infrequent use of a hearing aid does not 
permit a user to attain full benefit from it. The use of a 
hearing aid is only part of hearing habilitation and may 
need to be supplemented by auditory training and 
instruction in lipreading.

19. Important safety information
