- Hearing aids don’t need to be removed
when passing security gates (airports etc.).
If X-ray is used at all, it will be in very low
doses, and will not affect the hearing aids.
Special care should be exercised in wearing
hearing aids when maximum sound
pressure levels exceed 132 decibels. There
may be a risk of impairing your remaining
hearing. Speak with your hearing healthcare
professional to ensure the maximum output
of your hearing aids is suitable for your
particular hearing loss.
Your hearing aids operate in the frequency
range of 2.4 GHz–2.48 GHz. When flying
please check if flight operator requires
devices to be switched into flight mode.
Battery warning
Never leave hearing aids or batteries
where small children and pets can reach
them. Never put hearing aids or batteries
in your mouth. If a hearing aid or battery is
swallowed, call a physician immediately.
Precautions
The use of hearing aids is only part of
hearing rehabilitation; auditory training and
lip reading instruction may be required as
well.
In most cases, infrequent use of hearing
aids does not provide full benefit. Once you
have become accustomed to your hearing
aids, wear your hearing aids everyday all
day.
Your hearing aids use the most modern
components to provide the best possible
sound quality in every listening situation.
However, communication devices such
as digital mobile phones can create
interference (a buzzing sound) in hearing
aids. If you experience interference from a
mobile phone being used close by, you can
minimize this interference in a number of
ways. Switch your hearing aids to another
program, turn your head in a different
direction or locate the mobile phone and
move away from it.
