gENERaL PRECauTiONS
• Consult a physician if you find a foreign object in
your ear canal, if you experience skin irritation or if
excessive ear wax accumulates with the use of the
hearing instrument.
• Different types of radiation, e.g. from NMR or CT
scanners, may damage the hearing instrument.
Therefore, do not wear the hearing instrument du-
ring these or other corresponding scanning pro-
cedures. Other types of radiation (burglary alarms,
room surveillance systems, radio equipment, mo-
bile telephones, etc) contain less energy and will not
damage the hearing instrument. They could, how-
ever, momentarily affect the sound quality, or cause
the hearing aids to emit an unexpected sound.
• Warning: Do not wear the hearing instrument in mi-
nes or other explosive areas, unless those areas are
certified for hearing instrument use.
• Warning to hearing aid dispenser:
Special care should be exercised in selecting and
fitting a hearing aid whose maximum sound pres-
sure level exceeds 132 dB as measured with an IEC
711 Ear simulator because there may be a risk of
impair ing the remaining hearing of the hearing aid
user.
