Heat and chemicals
· The hearing aid must never be exposed to extreme
heat e.g. left inside a parked car in the sun.
· The hearing aid must not be dried in microwave
ovens or other ovens.
· The chemicals in cosmetics, hairspray, perfume,
aftershave lotion, suntan lotion and insect repellent
can damage the hearing aid. Always remove your
hearing aid before applying such products and allow
time to dry before use.
Power instrument
· Special care should be exercised in selecting, tting
and using a hearing aid where maximum sound
pressure capability exceeds 132 dB SPL (IEC 711),
as there may be risk of impairing the remaining
hearing of the hearing aid user.
For information on whether your hearing aid is a
power instrument, see the "Model overview" section
in the front of this booklet.
Possible side effects
· Hearing aids and earpieces may cause an
accelerated accumulation of ear wax.
· The non-allergenic materials used in hearing aids
may in rare cases cause a skin irritation or other
side effects.
Please seek consultation with a physician if these
conditions occur.
