International warranty and service
Any digital hearing instrument from Beltone has an international
warranty. Read more on this subject on the warranty card you
received with your instrument.
Repairs
If your Beltone hearing instrument malfunctions, it must be
repaired by a qualified technician. Do not attempt to open the
case of the hearing instrument since this would invalidate the
warranty. If your Beltone hearing instrument requires service,
please contact your hearing care professional for assistance.
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 during these or other corresponding
scanning procedures. Other types of radiation (burglary
alarms, room surveillance systems, radio equipment, mobile
telephones, etc) contain less energy and will not damage the
hearing instrument. They could however momentarily affect
the sound quality or create strange sounds from the hearing
instruments.
• Warning: Do not wear the hearing instrument in mines or
other explosive areas, unless those areas are certified for
hearing instrument use.
