and tting a hearing aid with a maximum out-
put that exceeds 132 dB SPL because it may
impair the remaining hearing of the hearing
aid user.
Caution: This is not hearing protection.
You should remove this device if you
experience overly loud sounds, whether
short or long-lasting. If you’re in a loud place,
you should use the right kind of hearing
protection instead of wearing this device. In
general, if you would use ear plugs in a loud
place, you should remove this device and use
ear plugs.
Caution: The sound output should not
be uncomfortable or painful.
You should turn down the volume or remove
the device if the sound output is uncomfort-
ably loud or painful. If you consistently need

If any part of your hearing aid, like the
eartip, gets stuck in your ear, and you
can’t easily remove it with your ngers,
get medical help as soon as you can. You
should not try to use tweezers or cotton
swabs because they can push the part
farther into your ear, injuring your eardrum
or ear canal, possibly seriously.
Note: What you might expect when
you start using a hearing aid
A hearing aid can benet many people
with hearing loss. However, you should

and you may still have some diculty
hearing over noise. Further, a hearing
aid will not prevent or improve a medical
condition that causes hearing loss.
People who start using hearing aids
sometimes need a few weeks to get
used to them. Similarly, many people
nd that training or counseling can help
them get more out of their devices.
