Dysfunction
• 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
trac). The hearing aids may stop
functioning, for instance if the
batteries have expired or if the
tubing is blocked by moisture or ear
wax.
Active implants
• Caution must be taken with active
implants. In general, follow the
guidelines recommended by
manufacturers of implantable
debrillators and pacemakers
regarding use with mobile phones
and magnets.
• The Autophone magnet and
MultiTool (which has a built-in
magnet) should be kept more than
30 cm away from the implant, e.g. do
not carry it 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.
X-ray, CT, MR, PET scanning and
electrotherapy
• Remove your hearing aid before
X-ray, CT/MR/PET scanning,
electrotherapy, surgery etc. as your
hearing aid may be damaged when
exposed to strong elds.
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.
