Some useful tips:

Never expose your hearing instruments to extreme temperatures or high humidity. Never let them lie in the blazing sun. Do not wear them when taking a shower or when using hairspray.

In short-wave therapy or if you work or are medically treated with strong magnetic or high-frequency fields or X-rays, under no circumstances may you wear the instruments during the therapy.

Make sure to switch off the instruments when not in use.This saves the batteries.

If you don’t wear your instruments for a longer time, remove the batteries. Batteries can leak out. Replace batteries that have leaked out without delay.

If the hearing instrument is too quiet

All

Most likely, you need to insert a new battery. If it

is still too quiet, clean the instrument or the ear

 

mould and hearing tube, following the directions

 

in the chapter “Notes for cleaning and care“.

 

If neither a new battery nor cleaning helps,

 

as a precaution you should ask your hearing

 

instrument specialist to test your hearing again.

 

If the hearing instrument does not work at all

 

Is the instrument turned on? Is the battery

 

compartment completely closed? Is the battery

 

inserted correctly? Is it possible that the battery is

 

dead?

 

If none of these hints help, you should visit your

 

hearing instrument specialist.
