About Start up Handling Options Warnings Additionals
You should familiarize yourself fully
with the following general warnings
before using your hearing instrument
for personal safety and to secure
correct use.
Consult your Hearing Care Professional
if you experience unexpected
operations or events with your hearing
instrument.
Usage of hearing instruments
• Hearing instruments should be used
only as directed and adjusted by your
Hearing Care Professional. Misuse
can result in sudden and permanent
hearing loss.
• Never allow others to wear your
hearing instrument as incorrect
usage could cause permanent
damage to their hearing.
Choking hazards & risk of swallowing
batteries
• Hearing instruments, their parts,
and batteries should be kept out
of reach of children and anyone
who might swallow these items,
or otherwise cause injury to
themselves.
• Batteries have occasionally been
mistaken for pills. Therefore check
your medicine carefully before
swallowing any pills.
• Most hearing instruments can be
supplied with a tamper-resistant
battery drawer upon request. This is
strongly recommended for infants,
small children, and people with
learning diculties.
• Children below 36 months must
always use a tamper-resistant
battery drawer. This option is

About Start up Handling Options Warnings Additionals
Dysfunction
• Be aware of the possibility that
your hearing instrument may stop
working without notice. Keep
this in mind when you depend on
warning sounds (e.g., when you are
in trac). The hearing instruments
may stop functioning, for instance if
the batteries have expired or if the
tubing is blocked by moisture or ear
wax.
Active implants
• Caution must be taken with active
implants. In general, follow the
guidelines recommended by
manufacturers of implantable
debrillators and pacemakers
regarding use with mobile phones.
• If you wear an active implant, then
keep the hearing instrument more
than 15 cm away from the implant.
If you have an Autophone magnet
or MultiTool (which has a built-in
magnet), keep them more than 30
cm away from the implant. E.g.,do
not carry them in a breast pocket.
• If you have an active brain implant,
please contact the manufacturer
of your implantable device for
information about the risk of
disturbance.
Explosives
• The power source in your hearing
instrument has insucient energy
to cause re in normal usage
conditions. The hearing instrument
has not been tested for compliance
with international standards
concerning explosive environments.
It is recommended not to use your
hearing instrument in areas where
there is a danger of explosions.
X-ray, CT, MR, PET scanning and
electrotherapy

before putting it on.
Power instrument
• Special care should be excercised in
selecting, tting and using a hearing
instrument where maximum sound
pressure capability exceeds 132 dB
SPL (IEC 711), as there may be risk of
impairing the remaining hearing of
the hearing instrument user.
For information on whether your
instrument is a power instrument,
speak with your Hearing Care
Professional or consult the settings
overview page at the end of this
manual.
Possible side eects
• Hearing instruments, molds or
domes may cause an accelerated
accumulation of ear wax.
• The otherwise non-allergenic
materials used in hearing
instruments may in rare cases cause
a skin irritation or any other unusual
condition.
Please seek consultation with a
physician if these conditions occur.
Interference
• Your hearing instrument has been
thoroughly tested for interference,
according to the most stringent
international standards. However,
interference with your hearing
instrument and other devices may
occur, (e.g., some mobile telephones,
citizens band systems and shop

Warning to hearing instrument
dispensers
A hearing instrument dispenser
should advise a prospective
hearing instrument user to consult
immediately with a licensed physician
(preferably an ear specialist) before
dispensing a hearing instrument if
the hearing instrument dispenser
determines through inquiry, actual
observation, or review of any other
available information concerning the
prospective user, that the prospective
user has any of the following
conditions:
(i) Visible congenital or traumatic
deformity of the ear.
(ii) History of active drainage from
the ear within the previous 90
days.
(iii) History of sudden or rapidly
progressive hearing loss within
the previous 90 days.
(iv) Acute or chronic dizziness.
(v) Unilateral hearing loss of sudden
or recent onset within the
previous 90 days.
(vi) Audiometric air-bone gap equal
to or greater than 15 decibels at
500 Hertz (Hz), 1,000 Hz, and
2,000 Hz.
(vii) Visible evidence of signicant
cerumen accumulation or a
foreign body in the ear canal.
(viii) Pain or discomfort in the ear.
Warnings
Special care should be exercised
in selecting and tting a hearing
instrument whose maximum sound
pressure capability exceeds 132 dB
SPL as there may be risk of impairing
the remaining hearing of the hearing
instrument user.
Important notice for prospective
hearing instrument users
• Good health practice requires that
a person with a hearing loss have
a medical evaluation by a licensed
physician (preferably a physician
who specializes in diseases of the
ear) before purchasing a hearing
instrument. Licensed physicians
who specialize in diseases of
the ear are often referred to as
Otolaryngologists, Otologists
or Otorhinolaryngologists. The
purpose of medical evaluation
is to ensure that all medically
treatable conditions that may aect
hearing are identied and treated
before the hearing instrument is
purchased. Following the medical
evaluation, the physician will give
you a written statement that states
that your hearing loss has been
medically evaluated and that you
may be considered a candidate for a
hearing instrument. The physician
will refer you to an audiologist or
a hearing instrument dispenser,
as appropriate, for a hearing
instrument evaluation.
Page 23
44 45
About Start up Handling Options Warnings Additionals
• The audiologist or hearing
instrument dispenser will conduct
a hearing instrument evaluation to
assess your ability to hear with and
without a hearing instrument. The
hearing instrument evaluation will
enable the audiologist or dispenser
to select and t a hearing instrument
to your individual needs. If you have
reservations about your ability to
adapt to amplication, you should
inquire about the availability of
a trial, rental or purchase-option
program. Many hearing instrument
dispensers now oer programs
that permit you to wear a hearing
instrument for a period of time
for a nominal fee, after which you
may decide if you want to purchase
the hearing instrument. Federal
law limits the sale of hearing
instruments to those individuals
who have obtained a medical
evaluation from a licensed physician.
• Federal law permits a fully informed
adult to sign a waiver statement
declining the medical evaluation
for religious or personal beliefs
that preclude consultation with a
physician. The exercise of such a
waiver is not in your best health
interest and its use is strongly
discouraged. A hearing instrument
will not restore normal hearing and
will not prevent or improve a hearing
impairment resulting from organic
conditions. A hearing instrument is
Warnings
only part of hearing rehabilitation
and may need to be supplemented
by auditory training and lip reading.
Children with hearing loss
In addition to seeing a physician for
medical evaluation, a child with a
hearing loss should be directed to
an audiologist for evaluation and
rehabilitation, since hearing loss
may cause problems in language
development and educational and
social growth of a child. An audiologist
is qualied by training and experience
to assist in the evaluation and
rehabilitation of a child with a hearing
loss. If the user is an infant, small
child, or person of mental incapacity,
it is recommended that the hearing
instrument be modied with a tamperresistant battery compartment.

Mobile phone
Some hearing instrument users
have reported a buzzing sound in
their hearing instrument when they
are using mobile phones, indicating
that the mobile phone and hearing
instrument may not be compatible.
According to the ANSI C63.19 standard
(ANSI C63.19–2007 American National
Standard Methods of Measurement
of Compatibility Between Wireless
Communications Devices and Hearing
Aids), the compatibility of a particular
hearing instrument and mobile phone
can be predicted by adding the rating
for the hearing instrument immunity
to the rating for the mobile phone
emissions. For example, the sum of a
hearing instrument rating of 2 (M2/
T2) and a telephone rating of 3 (M3/
T3) would result in a combined rating
of 5. Any combined rating that equals
at least 5 would provide “normal use”; a
combined rating of 6 or greater would
indicate “excellent performance”.
