Battery warnings
Batteries contain dangerous substances and should be disposed of carefully in the interest
of your safety and for the environment. Please note:
1. Keep batteries away from pets, children and mentally challenged persons.
2. DO NOT place batteries in your mouth. Consult a physician immediately if a battery
has been swallowed, as they can be harmful to your health.
3. Do not attempt to recharge batteries (Zinc Air) which are not specifically designated
as rechargeable because they may leak or explode.

General precautions
1. Do not leave hearing aids in the sun, near an open fire, or in a hot, parked car.
2. Do not wear hearing aids while showering, swimming, in heavy rain, or in a moist
atmosphere such as a steam bath or sauna.
3. Should the hearing aid become moist, remove the battery and place the hearing aid
in a closed container with a drying agent. Your hearing care professional can provide
options for drying containers or kits.
4. Remove the hearing aids when applying items such as cosmetics, perfume, after-
shave, hair spray, and suntan lotion.
5. Use only original Interton consumables e.g. tubes and domes.
6. Only connect Interton hearing aids to Interton accessories intended and qualified to
be used with Interton hearing aids.
7. Never attempt to modify the shape of the hearing aid, ear-moulds, or tubing yourself.
