The TSG Module should be used as prescribed by your doctor, audiologist, or hearing 
care practitioner. In order to avoid permanent hearing damages, the maximum daily usage  
depends on the level of the generated sound.

Should you develop any side effects from using the sound generator, such as dizziness, 
nausea, headaches, perceived decrease in auditory function or increase in tinnitus percep-
tion, you should discontinue use of sound generator and seek medical evaluation.

The target population is primarily the adult population over 18 years of age. This product may 
also be used with children 5 years of age or older. However, children and physically or men-
tally challenged users will require training by a doctor, audiologist, hearing care practitioner 
or the guardian for the insertion and removal of the device containing the TSG module.
