Active implants
The hearing aid has been thoroughly
tested and characterized for human
health according to international
standards for human exposure (Specific
Absorption Ratio - SAR), induced
electromagnetic power and voltages
into the human body.
The exposure values are well below
international accepted safety limits for
SAR, induced electromagnetic power
and voltages into the human body
defined in the standards for human
health and coexistence with active
medical implants, such as pacemakers
and heart defibrillators.
If you have an active brain implant,
please contact the manufacturer of your
implantable device for information
about the risk of disturbance.
The AutoPhone magnet or MultiTool
(which has a built-in magnet) should
be kept more than 30 centimeters
(1 foot) away from the implant, e.g.
do not carry it in your breast pocket.
Follow the guidelines recommended by
the manufacturers of implantable
defibrillators and pacemakers regarding
their use with magnets.
Cochlear implants
If you are using a cochlear implant (CI)
on one ear and a hearing aid on the
other ear, make sure to always keep
your CI at least at a 1 centimeter (0.4
inches) distance from your hearing aid.
The magnetic field from the CI sound
processors, coils, and magnets may
permanently damage the speaker unit
in your hearing aid. Never place the
