ADVICE
NOTE
• The hearing aid will not restore normal hearing and will not prevent
or improve a hearing loss resulting from organic conditions. How-
ever, the hearing aid can help you to make the best possible use of
your remaining hearing ability. You should also bear in mind that it
can take time to get used to a new hearing aid and new sounds.
• In most cases, using the hearing aid infrequently will not permit you
to gain full benefit from it.
• The use of a hearing aid is only part of hearing habilitation and may
need to be supplemented by auditory training and instruction in
lipreading.
• The use of hearing aids increases the risk of accumulation of earwax.
Contact your physician/ENT doctor if you suspect that a plug of ear-
wax has accumulated in your ear. Earwax may not only reduce your
own hearing but also the effect of the hearing aid considerably. It
is a good idea to ask your physician to clean your ears a couple of
times a year.
