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, from e.g. 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.
