• Do not wear your hearing aid during xray, MR
scans, CT scans, shortwave diathermy, or similar
radiation treatments and never place your hearing
aid in a microwave oven. These are some of the
types of radiation that can damage your hearing
aid. Radiation from, for example, room surveil-
lance equipment, burglar alarms, and cellular tel-
ephones, is weaker and will not damage your
hearing aid, but at times may cause interference
noise.
• Widex hearing aids are not certified for use in
mines or other areas with explosive gases.
