The following is only
applicable for persons with
active implantable medical
devices (i.e. pacemakers,
defibrillators, etc.):
Keep the wireless hearing
aid at least 15 cm
(6 inches) away from the
active implant. If you
experience any interference,
do not use the wireless
hearing aids and contact
the manufacturer of the
active implant. Please, note
that interference can also
be caused by power lines,
electrostatic discharge,
airport metal detectors etc.
Keep magnets (i.e. battery
handling tool, EasyPhone
magnet, etc.) at least
15 cm (6 inches) away
from the active implant.
Avoid strong physical
impacts to the ear when
wearing in-the-ear hearing
aids. The stability of
in-the-ear shells is
designed for normal use.
A strong physical impact to
the ear (e.g. during sports)
may cause the in-the-ear
shell to break. This may
lead to perforation of the
ear canal or ear drum.
After mechanical stress or
shock to the hearing aid,
please ensure that the
hearing aid shell is intact
before placing it in the ear.
