Read the User Guide before using the iHEARHD®.
Infrequent use of a hearing device does not permit a
user to attain full benet from it. Hearing device will not restore
normal hearing and will not prevent or improve a hearing
impairment resulting from organic conditions.

The iHEARHD is an in-the-ear hearing aid intended for
adults with mild to moderately severe hearing loss who
need hearing enhancement and is not to be worn by
individuals under the age of 18. The Food and Drug
Administration has determined that it is in your best health
interest to have a medical evaluation by a physician (preferably
a physician who specializes in diseases of the ear) before
purchasing a hearing aid. The purpose of a medical evaluation
is to assure that all medically treatable conditions that may
aect hearing are identied and treated before a hearing aid is
purchased. Following the medical evaluation, the physician can
give you a written statement (medical clearance) that states that
your hearing health has been evaluated and that you may be
considered a candidate for a hearing aid. The physician may refer
you to an audiologist or a hearing aid dispenser, for a hearing aid
evaluation. You may also send (by mail, fax, or e-mail) the signed
medical clearance to iHear Medical for the purpose of purchasing
a hearing aid. Federal law restricts the sale of hearing aids to
those individuals who have obtained a medical evaluation from a
physician. Federal law also permits a fully informed adult to sign
a medical waiver statement declining the medical evaluation. The
exercise of such a waiver is not in your best health interest and its
use is discouraged. iHear Medical will not sell a hearing device to
you unless you either (1) obtain a signed medical clearance, or (2)
review and accept the medical waiver statement.

CONTRAINDICATIONS FOR USE
The following conditions contraindicate the use of a

following conditions, you must consult with a physician who will
need to provide medical clearance before using a hearing device.

dementia

DISCLAIMERS
• The use of a hearing device will not restore normal hearing. All
it can do is improve your existing hearing ability.
• The use of a hearing device will not cause further hearing loss,
nor will it stop the progression of any further hearing loss.
• At rst you may notice sounds in your environment that you
have not heard in a while which may be disturbing. Soon your
brain will adapt to the sounds around you.
• For some, full adaptation to amplication can take up to 3
months of consistent wear.
• Optimal listening distance, even for someone who hears nor-
mally, is about 3-10 feet. It’s especially important to remember
this while adapting to amplication.
If you have any questions regarding the use of this product,
