VL-MV10EX2 only:
This product is equipped
with an integrated induction loop.
– In areas surrounded with strong electric
fields, disturbances may occur in the hearing
aid's audio.
– If there are electronic devices or electric
devices used nearby, they may create
magnetic noise which can affect the quality of
calls. Also, the magnetic coupling of the
induction loop is weakened when there are
metal objects nearby. This may reduce the
range where the hearing aid has good
audibility.
– Do not install or use the product in health
care facilities if any regulations posted in the
area instruct you not to do so. Hospitals or
health care facilities may be using equipment
that could be sensitive to electromagnetic
waves.
CAUTION
Preventing electric shock
R
If the wiring passes underground, use a conduit,
and do not make any connections underground.
R
If the wiring passes outdoors, use a conduit or a
surge protector.
Preventing injury
