General warnings
1. Consult a hearing care professional if you discover a foreign object in your ear canal, if you experience
skin irritation, or if excessive ear wax accumulates with the use of the hearing instrument.
2. Different types of radiation, for example, from NMR, MRI or CT scanners, may damage hearing
instruments. It is recommended not to wear hearing instruments during these or other similar
procedures. Other types of radiation, such as burglar alarms, room surveillance systems, radio
equipment, mobile telephones, contain less energy and will not damage hearing instruments.
However, they have the potential to momentarily affect the sound quality or temporarily create
strange sounds from hearing instruments.
3. Do not wear hearing instruments in mines, oil fields, or other explosive areas unless those areas
are certified for hearing instrument use.
4. Do not allow others to use your hearing instruments. This may cause damage to the hearing
instruments or to the hearing of the other individual.
