WARNING

Never leave an exhausted battery in the hearing aid. Exhausted

batteries may leak, damaging the hearing aid.

WARNING

Your hearing aid may stop functioning, for instance if the

battery is exhausted. You should be aware of this possibility, in

particular when you are in traffic or are otherwise dependent

on warning signals.

WARNING

Your hearing aid is a powerful instrument. Do not use it at

uncomfortably high volume levels for prolonged periods of time

– it might damage your hearing.

16 17

CAUTION

If the volume in the hearing aid is generally too loud or too

weak, or the reproduced sounds are distorted, or if you would

like any further information, consult your hearing care profes-

sional.
