• Regular use of a de-humidifier is recommended to help avoid mal-
function of the hearing aid .
• Do not use Widex hearing aids in mines or other areas with explo-
sive gases .
•
Do not wear your hearing aid during radiation, X-rays, MRIs, CT or
other medical treatments and scans .
The emissions from these pro-
cedures as well as from other types of radiation, such as that in a
microwave oven, can damage your hearing aid and the hearing aid
can become very hot . Radiation from, for example, room surveillance
equipment, burglar alarms and cell phones is weaker and will not
damage the hearing aid, but may create audible interference .
