You must use the original magnet provided with your hearing
instrument. Using other magnets may cause irreversible damage
to the electronics of your hearing instrument.
When magnets are properly cared for, they are safe to use
and can last a lifetime. However, the following guidelines
should be followed while using these magnets.
WARNING
• Magnets can pose risks to electronics and magnetic
storage media when placed in close proximity.
• Be careful not to place magnets near computers, color
monitors, television sets, floppy disks, video/audio tape,
and other electronic equipment.
• Magnets may interfere with the operation of life support
systems, such as pacemakers, magnetic valves, etc.
• Make certain to maintain a distance of at least 4 inches
between the magnet and the area of your support system.
• Keep magnets out of the reach of children or pets.
• If accidentally swallowed, seek medical attention.
Audio induction loops / telecoil
Some telephones and public places like theatres offer the audio
signal (music and speech) via an audio induction loop. With this
system, your hearing instruments can directly receive the desired
signal – without distracting noise in the environment.
You can usually recognize audio induction loop
systems by certain signs.
Ask your Hearing Care Professional to congure
a telecoil program.
