General Warnings and Safety

Information

Hearing aids and batteries can be dangerous if

swallowed or improperly used. Improper use can

result in severe injury, permanent hearing loss, or

even fatality. Before you use your hearing aid,

please read the following hazard warnings.

Hazard Warnings

Warnings for Hearing Aid Users

Never allow others to wear your hearing aid.

It could permanently damage another person’s

hearing.

Avoid wearing your hearing aid while playing

contact sports (e.g., rugby, football, etc.).

A slap to your ear while wearing a hearing aid

could be harmful.

Keep your hearing aid (if not equipped with

a tamper-resistant battery door), parts, and

batteries out of the reach of infants, children,

and anyone who might swallow these items

Most hearing aids can be supplied with a

tamper-resistant battery compartment upon

request. This is strongly recommended for

infants, small children, and people with learning

difculties.

Discard batteries safely. Keep discarded

batteries out of sight of infants, small children,

vulnerable persons, and pets.

Clean your hearing aid (including parts) on a

regular basis, as recommended by your hearing

care professional. Microorganisms from an

unclean hearing aid may cause skin irritations.

Be careful of leaking battery liquid. Battery liquid

is a hazardous substance.

Never try to recharge non-rechargeable batteries

Never change the battery, or adjust the controls

of the hearing aid, in front of infants, small

children, and vulnerable persons

Be aware of the possibility that your hearing aid

may stop working without notice. Keep this in

mind when you depend on warning sounds

(e.g., when you are in trafc).

X-ray, CT, MR, PET Scanning and Electrotherapy

Remove your hearing aid during X-ray, CT / MR /

PET scanning electrotherapy or surgery, as your

hearing aid may be damaged when exposed to

strong elds

Explosives

The power source in your hearing aid has

insufcient energy to cause re in normal

conditions of use. The hearing aid has not been

tested for compliance with international standards

concerning explosive atmospheres.

It is recommended not to use your hearing aid in

areas where there is a danger of explosion.

Be aware of the possibility that the directional

microphone in your hearing aid may reduce the

volume of some warning sounds coming from

behind you

Remove your hearing aid before applying

aftershave, hairspray, oils, perfume, mosquito

repellent, lotions, etc. If your hearing aid is

exposed to such a product, allow the product to

dry before you put your hearing aid on.

Warnings to Hearing Care Professionals

and Users

Take special care when tting and using a

hearing aid with maximum sound pressure

capability in excess of a maximum of 132 dB SPL

(IEC 60318-4). In this case, there may be a risk of

damaging the hearing aid user’s hearing.

Only connect hearing aids with Direct Audio Input

(DAI) to electrically powered devices that comply

with EN 60950-1, EN 60065 or equivalent safety

standards. The external signal source determines

the safety of hearing aids with DAI.

If using DAI connected equipment that is plugged

into an electrical outlet (TV, computer), the DAI

cord should be disconnected from the hearing aid

during an electrical (lightning) storm
