General Warnings
Power instrument
Special care should be exercised when
selecting, fitting and using a hearing
aid when the maximum sound pressure
capability exceeds 132 dB SPL (IEC
60318-4 / IEC 711), as there may be risk
of impairing the remaining hearing of
the hearing aid user.
For information on whether your
instrument is a power hearing aid, see
the model overview section in this booklet.
Possible side effects
Hearing aids, molds or domes may cause
an accelerated accumulation of earwax.
The non-allergenic materials used in
hearing aids may in rare cases cause a
skin irritation or other side effects.
If these conditions occur, seek
consultation with a physician.
Use on aircraft
Your hearing aids have Bluetooth wireless
technology. On board an aircraft, the
hearing aid must be put into flight mode
to deactivate Bluetooth, unless Bluetooth
is permitted by the flight personnel.
Connection to external equipment
The safety of the use of hearing aids
when connected to external equipment
(with an auxiliary input cable and/or
USB cable and/or directly), is determined
by the external signal source. When
connected to external equipment plugged
into a wall outlet, this equipment
must
comply with IEC 62368-1 or equivalent
safety standards.
