to communicate to your hearing
instruments. Although unlikely,
interference with medical devices
such as pacemakers is possible.
Interference should not occur
with normal use, holding the remote
comfortably in the hand, 4 inches
(10 centimeters) or more from the
body. Therefore, it is recommended
that pacemaker users do not keep
the remote device in a breast pocket.
Do not use Smart Alert remote in
explosion hazard areas.
Do not use Smart Alert remote in
locations forbidden to use electronic
devices, such as an airplane.
Store your Smart Alert remote in
a safe location for CT and MRI scans

approved by Unitron may void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.

Precautions
If your Smart Alert remote fails to
operate after you have correctly inserted
a new battery, contact your hearing
healthcare professional. Always bring both
your Smart Alert remote and your hearing
instruments for service questions.
Your Smart Alert remote and your
