• Use only original tubes from the manufacturer with your hearing aids.
• Use only accessories intended for use with your hearing aids. Consult your hearing aid professional for
more information.
• Do not try to modify the shape of your hearing aid or accessories. This can cause skin reactions or
sharp edges leading to scratches or sores.
• If you have two hearing aids, they may be programmed differently. Do not swap them as this could
damage your hearing. Your hearing aids are colour-coded. Left=blue.Right=red.
If your hearing aids are not colour coded, ask your hearing care professional to add colour coding.
• If you experience side effects, contact your hearing care professional. Possible side effects from
wearing a hearing aid may be:

• If you suspect that you have a foreign object in your ear canal, consult your hearing care professional.
These objects can be harmful and can cause an infection in your ear.
• If you have a sore or injury where your hearing aid touches your ear or head, continued use of the
hearing aid may cause it to worsen or prevent it from healing. Consult your hearing care professional
for assistance.
