Hearing aids should be kept clean and wax removed from earplugs frequently
Hearing aids should be regularly sent to the testing center for maintenance and inspection, to ensure that the hearing aid is in good condition.
Use earplugs with caution if the patient has a perforated eardrum, exposed middle ear cavity, or has had ear canal surgery. Hearing aids are not suitable for patients with acute external auditory canal, otitis, chronic suppurative otitis media, acute suppurative otitis media, and those allergic to this material.

To avoid drool, please handle your hearing aid with care and prevent it from falling on the parrot to a avoid strong impact or impact on the hearing aid. Hearing aids are composed of sophisticated acoustic components; especially the receiver is easily damaged by vibration, which will shorten the service life of the original according to the damage, and severe vibration will cause damage to the hearing aid.
Hearing aids are strictly prohibited from entering the water. Do not immerse the hearing aid in any liquid. It would be best to take off the hearing aids when swimming, bathing and washing hair.

Compliance information

Product structure and composition:
The rechargeable behind-the-ear hearing aid consists of a shell, a microphone, a signal processor, a receiver and an earplug.

Operating principle:
Hearing aids are essentially sound amplifiers; the sound is amplified in some way, and it is some way that people with hearing loss can effectively use themselves to participate in the hearing. The microphone receives the external sound of the hearing aid, and the analog-to-digital (ADC) converter converts it into a digital signal. The multi-channel digital signal processor(DSP) processes the digital input signal and outputs a direct digital drive (DDD), which drives the receiver sound. Through the programming interface, use the special testing and debugging software,to set according to the user’s empathy for the hearing aid, save the setting value in the memory, and save some parameters and program segments that control the working mode of the DSO.

Product intended use:
After the test, it is provided to the patients with hearing loss compensation.

Contraindication:
Dion series products are not recommended for people with acute otitis externa, tympanitis, chronic suppurative otitis media, and acute suppurative otitis media.

A special note on howlers:
One of the most common problems that new users of hearing aids encounter for the first time is “squealing”, which is, hearing aids emit loud noises, especially when the volume is turned on higher, The noise comes from the earplugs that are not completely plugged, and the ear canal cannot be closed. The hearing aid amplifies the Leakage sound, which is then amplified by the hearing aid to generate noise.
