18.2 Information on product safety
Protect your hearing aid
from heat (never leave near
a window or in the car).
Never use a microwave or
other heating devices to
dry your hearing aid (due
to risk of re or explosion).
Ask your hearing care
professional about suitable
drying methods.
The dome should be
changed every three
months or when it
becomes sti or brittle.
This is to prevent the dome
from detaching from the
tube spout during insertion
into or removal from the
ear.
Do not drop your hearing
aid! Dropping onto a hard
surface can damage your
hearing aid.
Store your hearing aid in
the charger if you are not

may adversely aect the
correct functioning of your

magnetic elds.
Hearing aids don’t need to
be removed when passing
