WARNING

• Be aware that the use of any type of hearing aid may involve

a slightly increased risk of infection in the ear canal. An infec-

tion can arise as a result of inadequate ventilation of the ear.

We therefore recommend that you remove the hearing aid

and ear-set from your ear at night to allow the ear canal to be

ventilated. Make sure that you clean and inspect your hearing

aid and ear-set as required. If an infection occurs, you should

seek medical attention and contact your hearing care profes-

sional for advice on how to disinfect the various hearing aid

parts. Do not under any circumstances use alcohol, chlorine

or similar substances.

• Do not use Widex hearing aids in mines or other areas with

explosive gases.

• Do not wear your hearing aid during radiation, X-rays, MRIs,

CT or other medical treatments and scans. The emissions

from these procedures as well as from other types of radia-

tion, such as that in a microwave oven, can damage your hear-

ing aid. Radiation from, for example, room surveillance equip-

ment, burglar alarms and mobile phones is weaker and will

not damage the hearing aid, but may create audible interfer-

ence.
