Good advice
• The use of hearing aids increases the risk of ac-
cumulation of earwax . Contact your physician/ENT
doctor if you suspect that a plug of earwax has ac-
cumulated in your ear . Earwax may not only reduce
your own hearing but also the effect of the hearing
aid considerably . It is a good idea to ask your physi-
cian 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 bat-
teries out of children’s reach and discard used bat-
teries carefully . Do not change batteries in front of
children and do not let them see where you keep
your supply .
• 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
swallowing it . In case of ingestion, contact your
physician immediately .
