Good advice
The use of hearing aids increases the risk of accumu-•
lation of earwax. Contact your physician/ENT doctor
if you suspect that a plug of earwax has accumulated
in your ear. Earwax may not only reduce your own
hearing but also the effect of the hearing aid consid-
erably. It is a good idea to ask your physician to clean
your ears a couple of times a year.
Please be sure to keep the hearing aid and its parts •
and accessories out of the reach of children, who
might place them in their mouths. Also keep batter-
ies out of children’s reach and discard used batteries
carefully. Do not change batteries in front of children
and do not let them see where you keep your sup-
ply.
Batteries are very small and can easily be mistaken •
for pills or the like. Never put a battery or hearing aid
in your mouth for any reason as you may risk swal-
lowing it. In case of ingestion, contact your physician
immediately.
The hearing aid will not restore normal hearing but •
can help you make best possible use of your remain-
ing hearing ability. However, you should be aware
that it takes time to get used to a new hearing aid
and new sounds.
The hearing aid is made of modern non-allergenic •
materials. Still, in rare cases skin irritation can occur. If
you notice skin irritation in or around your ear or ear
canal, contact your hearing care professional.
