You should familiarize yourself fully with the following general warnings and the entire

contents of this booklet before using your hearing instrument.

Usage of hearing instruments

• Hearing instruments should be used only as directed and adjusted by your Hearing

Care Professional. Misuse can result in sudden and permanent hearing loss.

• Never allow others to wear your hearing instrument as incorrect usage could cause

permanent damage to their hearing.

Choking hazards

• Hearing instruments, their parts, and batteries are not toys and should be kept out

of reach of children and anyone who might swallow these items or otherwise cause

injury to themselves.

• Never replace the battery or adjust the controls of the hearing instrument in front of

infants, small children or people with learning diculties.

• Discard batteries carefully in a place where infants, small children or people with

learning diculties cannot reach them.

Warnings

10 11

• Batteries have occasionally been mistaken for pills. Therefore check your medicine

carefully before swallowing any pills.

• Never put your hearing instrument or batteries in your mouth for any reason, as they

are slippery and could be swallowed by accident.

• Most hearing instruments can be supplied with a tamper-resistant battery

compartment upon request. This is strongly recommended for infants, small children,

and people with learning diculties.

If a battery or hearing instrument is swallowed, see a doctor immediately and call the

National Poison Center, collect (202) 625-3333.

Battery use

• Always use batteries recommended by your Hearing Care Professional. Batteries of

low quality may leak and cause bodily harm.

• Never attempt to recharge your batteries. They may explode and cause serious

injury.

• Never dispose of batteries by burning them. There is a risk that they will explode and

cause serious injury.

Dysfunction in hearing instruments

• Hearing instruments may stop functioning, for instance if the batteries have expired

or if the speaker is blocked by moisture or ear wax. You should be aware of this

possibility, in particular when you are in trac or otherwise dependent on warning

sounds.

Active implants

Caution must be shown with active implants. As general advice, follow the guidelines

as recommended by manufacturers of implantable debrillators and pacemakers

regarding use with cell phones:

• If you wear an active implant, then keep the hearing instrument more than 15 cm

away from the implant, e.g., do not carry them in a breast pocket.

• If you have an active brain implant, please contact the manufacturer of your

implantable device for information about the risk of disturbance.

Warnings Warnings

12 13

• The included case for instrument storage may have a built-in magnet. If so, and you

have an implantable device, such as pacemakers or debrillators, the instrument case

should not be carried in a chest pocket or near to the chest.

If you are in doubt of details of your instrument case, contact your Hearing Care

Professional.

• The MultiTool has a built-in magnet. If you have an implantable device, such as

pacemakers or debrillators, the MultiTool should not be carried in a breast pocket or

near the chest.

Explosives

• The power source in your hearing instrument has insucient energy to cause re in

normal conditions of use. The hearing instrument has not been tested for compliance

with international standards concerning explosive environments. It is recommended

not to use your hearing instrument in areas where there is a danger of explosions.

X-ray, CT, MR, PET scanning and electrotherapy

• Remove your hearing instrument, for example, during X-ray, CT / MR / PET scanning,

electrotherapy or surgery as your hearing instrument may be damaged when

exposed to strong elds.

Power instrument

• Special care should be exercised in selecting, tting and using a hearing instrument

where maximum sound pressure capability exceeds 132 dB SPL (IEC 711), as there

may be risk of impairing the remaining hearing of the hearing instrument user.

Possible side eects

• Hearing instruments, molds or domes may cause an accelerated accumulation of ear

wax.

• The otherwise non-allergenic materials used in hearing instruments may in rare

cases cause a skin irritation or any other unusual condition.

Please seek consultation with a physician if these conditions occur.
