ƒ The digital signal sent from the device to a connected receiver cannot be overheard by
other devices which are not in the microphone's network.

due to interference or moving out of range, and that words which are then spoken by
the microphone wearer may not be heard by the receiver wearer.
ƒ The sensitivity of the hearing aid microphone may be reduced by the use of your device
and therefore environmental awareness may be reduced.
