Important safety information
Read these pages carefully before you begin using your hearing aid.
Hearing aids and batteries can be dangerous if swallowed or used
improperly. Swallowing or improper use can result in severe injury or
even fatalities. In case of ingestion, contact your local emergency
number or hospital immediately.
Take your hearing aids out when you are not using them. This will help to
ventilate the ear canal and prevent ear infections.
Contact your doctor or hearing care professional immediately if you
suspect you may have an ear infection or an allergic reaction.
Contact your hearing care professional if the hearing aid doesn't feel
comfortable, or if it doesn't fit properly, causing irritation, redness or the
like.
Remove your hearing aids before showering, swimming or using a hair
dryer.
Do not wear your hearing aids when applying perfume, spray, gels, lotion
or cream.
Do not dry your hearing aid in a microwave oven - this will ruin it.
Never use other people’s hearing aids and never allow others to use
yours, as this could damage your hearing.
Never use your hearing aids in environments where there may be
explosive gases, such as in mines, etc.
