1 Introduction
Congratulations on the purchase of your new hearing aids. ReSound’s innovative sound technology and design, combined with the customized programming selected by your hearing care professional, will make hearing a more enjoyable experience.
Please read this manual carefully in order to wholly benefit from the use of your hearing aids. With prop­er care, maintenance, and usage, your hearing aids will aid you in better communication for many years.
2 Intended use
Generic air-conduction hearing aids are wearable sound-amplifying devices intended to compensate for impaired hearing. The fundamental operating principle of hearing aids is to receive, amplify, and transfer sound to the eardrum of a hearing-impaired person.
3 Becoming accustomed to amplification
While purchasing hearing aids is a major step, it is only one step in a process toward more comfortable hearing. Successfully adapting to the amplification of your hearing aids takes time and consistent use.
You will enjoy more benefits from your ReSound hearing aids by taking the following actions:
Wear the hearing aids regularly in order to get comfortable with using them
• It takes time to get used to hearing aids. Ask your hearing care professional to design a schedule tailored just for you
• As you get more comfortable with your hearing aids, increase the wearing time and wear them in multiple types of listening situations
400738011US-17.07-Rev.B.indd 4 03-07-2017 13:51:02

It may take as long as several months for your brain to get used to all the “new” sounds around you. Fol­lowing these suggestions will give your brain time to learn how to interpret amplification and increase the benefits you get from using ReSound hearing aids.
4 i Hearing aid expectations
A hearing aid will not restore normal hearing and will not prevent or improve a hearing impairment resulting from organic conditions. Consistent use of the hearing aid is recommended. In most cases, infrequent use does not permit you to attain full benefit from it.
The use of a hearing aid is only part of hearing rehabilitation and may need to be supplemented by audi­tory training and instructions in lip-reading.

8 Telephone use
With a hearing aid you are able to use a phone in a number of ways.
8.1 Normal use
To find the best way to use a telephone or smartphone while wearing your hearing aids may require practice. One or more of the following suggestions may be helpful:
1. Hold the telephone towards the ear (close to the hearing aid’s microphone)
2. If whistling occurs, it may take a few seconds of holding the telephone in the same position before the hearing aid eliminates the whistling
3. Whistling may also be stopped by holding the telephone slightly away from the ear
i
NOTE: Depending on your individual needs, your hearing care professional may activate a program specifically for telephone use.
8.2 Telecoil
Your hearing aids contain a telecoil. The Telecoil program may help to improve speech understanding with Hearing Aid Compatible (HAC) telephones and in theaters, cinemas, houses of worship etc. that have a hearing loop installed.
When you switch on the Telecoil program, your hearing aids pick up signals from the hearing loop or HAC telephone.
Your hearing care professional can activate the Telecoil program.
400738011US-17.07-Rev.B.indd 19 03-07-2017 13:51:16
20
i
NOTE: The telecoil cannot work without a hearing loop (aka induction-loop) or a HAC telephone. NOTE: If you are having trouble hearing with the hearing loop, ask you hearing care professional to
adjust the program. NOTE: If there is no sound from the hearing aids in a hearing loop system and an active Telecoil program, the hearing loop system may not be turned on or is not operating correctly. NOTE: The sound from the hearing loop and the hearing aids’ microphones can be mixed to your preference - either during the fitting session or via your smartphone app or your Remote Control 2.
8.2.1 Hearing loop systems
To use hearing loop systems, follow these steps:
1. Switch your hearing aid to the Telecoil program
2. Find a good spot. Reception is not clear in all locations; it depends on the hearing loop. Look for signs or find another spot to sit
3. If needed, adjust the volume
4. When you leave, switch to your preferred program
8.2.2 HAC telephone
Some smartphones are hearing aid compatible (HAC) - others are not. The HAC phone establishes a small hearing loop that your hearing aids connect to. Switch to the Telecoil program if you want to use a HAC phone. The telecoil picks up the HAC telephone’s signal and converts it to sound.
400738011US-17.07-Rev.B.indd 20 03-07-2017 13:51:16
21
To use the HAC telephone, follow these steps:
1. Switch your hearing aid to the Telecoil program
2. Pick up the telephone and place a call or answer a call
3. Hold the telephone close to the hearing aid, and tilt it slightly outwards
4. Listen to the dial tone and move the telephone to get the best reception
5. If needed, adjust the volume
6. When you hang up, switch to your preferred program
i
NOTE: If the phone has a poor telecoil signal, use the microphone program. To avoid whistling, do not hold the handset too tightly against your ear. NOTE: Ask your hearing care professional to enable the Telecoil program in your hearing aids. NOTE: If you see a “M3”, “M4”, “T3”, or “T4” on the box, then the smartphone is HAC compliant. NOTE: If you find it dicult to obtain a good result while using your smartphone, your hearing care professional will be able to give you advice on available wireless accessories to enhance listening capabilities. NOTE: Ask your smartphone dealer or hearing care professional for advice regarding HAC smart­phones.

8.3 Phone Now
By placing a magnet on the telephone receiver, your hearing aids automatically switch the telephone program on when the receiver is close to your ear. When you remove the receiver from your ear, the hearing aids automatically return to the previous listening program.
i
NOTE: Ask your hearing care professional to enable Phone Now as one of your programs.
8.3.1 Place the Phone Now magnet
Follow these steps in order to place the Phone Now magnet properly:
Clean the telephone thoroughly. Remove foil from magnet. Place the magnet.

15 Tinnitus Sound Generator module
15.1 Intended use for TSG module
Your ReSound hearing aid includes the Tinnitus Sound Generator (TSG) module, a tool for generating sounds to be used in tinnitus management programs to relieve suering from tinnitus.
The TSG can generate sounds adjusted to the specific therapeutic needs and your personal preference as determined by your doctor, audiologist, or hearing care professional.
Depending on the selected hearing aid program and the environment you are in, you will sometimes hear the therapeutic sound resembling a continuous or fluctuating noise.
15.2 User instructions for TSG
15.2.1 Description of device
The Tinnitus Sound Generator (TSG) Module is a software tool that generates sounds to be used in tin­nitus management programs to relieve suering from tinnitus.
15.2.2 Explanation of how the device functions
The TSG module is a frequency and amplitude shaped white-noise generator. Noise signal level and frequency characteristics can be adjusted to the specific therapeutic needs as determined by your doctor, audiologist or hearing care professional.
Your doctor, audiologist or hearing care professional can modulate the generated noise with the purpose of making it more pleasant. The noise can then resemble, for example, crashing waves on a shore.
400738011US-17.07-Rev.B.indd 38 03-07-2017 13:51:31
39
Modulation level and speed can also be configured to your likes and needs. An additional feature can be enabled by your hearing care professional that allows you to select predefined sounds that simulate sounds from nature, such as breaking waves or running water.
If you have two wireless hearing aids that support ear-to-ear synchronization this functionality can be enabled by your hearing care professional. This will cause the Tinnitus Sound Generator to synchronize the sound in both hearing aids.
If your tinnitus troubles you only in quiet environments, your doctor, audiologist or hearing care profes­sional can set the TSG module so that it becomes audible exclusively in such surroundings. The overall sound level can be adjusted via an optional volume control. Your doctor, audiologist or hearing care professional will review with you the need for having such a control.
For hearing aids where ear to ear synchronization is enabled, your hearing care professional can also en­able environmental monitoring synchronization so that the TSG noise level is automatically adjusted si­multaneously in both hearing aids dependent on the background sound level. Additionally, if the hearing aid has a volume control, then the background noise level monitored by the hearing aid and the volume control can be used simultaneously to adjust the generated noise level in both hearing aids.
400738011US-17.07-Rev.B.indd 39 03-07-2017 13:51:31
40
15.2.3 The scientific concepts that form the basis for the device
The TSG module provides sound enrichment with the aim of surrounding the tinnitus sound with a neu­tral sound, which is easily ignored. Sound enrichment is an important component of most approaches to tinnitus management, such as Tinnitus Retraining Therapy (TRT).
To assist habituation to tinnitus, this needs to be audible. The ideal level of the TSG module, therefore, should be set so that it starts to blend with the tinnitus, and so that you can hear both your tinnitus as well as the sound used.
In a majority of instances, the TSG module can also be set to mask the tinnitus sound, so to provide tem­porary relief by introducing a more pleasant and controllable sound source.
15.2.4 TSG volume control
The sound generator is set to a specific loudness level by the hearing healthcare professional. When switching the sound generator on, the volume will have this optimal setting. Therefore, it might not be necessary to control the volume (loudness) manually.
However, the volume control provides the ability to adjust the volume, or amount of stimulus, to the lik­ing of the user.
The volume control is an optional feature in the TSG module used for adjusting the sound generator output level. To prevent unintended usage by pediatric or physically or mentally challenged users, the volume control must, if enabled, be configured to only provide a decrease of the sound generator output level.
400738011US-17.07-Rev.B.indd 40 03-07-2017 13:51:31
41
15.2.5 Using TSG with smartphone apps
The tinnitus sound generator control via hearing aid push buttons can be enhanced with wireless control from a TSG control app on a smartphone or mobile device. This functionality is available in supported hearing aids when a hearing healthcare professional has enabled the TSG functionality during fitting of the hearing aid.
To use smartphone apps the hearing aid must be connected with the smartphone or mobile device.

15.3.3 Prescription use of a Tinnitus Sound Generator hearing aid
The TSG module should be used as prescribed by your doctor, audiologist or hearing healthcare profes­sional. In order to avoid permanent hearing damages, the maximum daily usage depends on the level of the generated sound.
Should you develop any side eects from using the sound generator, such as dizziness, nausea, head­aches, perceived decrease in auditory function or increase in tinnitus perception, you should discontinue use of sound generator and seek medical evaluation.
The target population is primarily the adult population over 18 years of age. This product may also be used with children 5 years of age or older. However, children and physically or mentally challenged users will require training by a doctor, audiologist, hearing healthcare professional or the guardian for the inser­tion and removal of the hearing instrument containing the TSG module.

15.3.4 Important notice for prospective sound generator users
A tinnitus masker is an electronic device intended to generate noise of sucient intensity and bandwidth to mask internal noises. It is also used as an aid in hearing external noises and speech.
Good health practice requires that a person with a tinnitus condition have a medical evaluation by a licensed physician (preferably a physician who specializes in diseases of the ear) before using a sound generator. 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 assure that all medically treatable conditions that may aect tin­nitus are identified and treated before the sound generator instrument is used.
The sound generator instrument is a tool to generate sounds to be used with appropriate counseling and/ or in a tinnitus management program to relieve patients suering from tinnitus.

23 i Important notice for prospective hearing aid users (US only)
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 aid. 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 assure that all medically treat­able conditions that may aect hearing are identified and treated before the hearing aid 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 aid. The physician will refer you to an audiologist or a hearing care professional, as appropriate, for a hearing aid evaluation.
The audiologist or hearing care professional will conduct a hearing aid evaluation to assess your ability to hear with and without a hearing aid. The hearing aid evaluation will enable the audiologist or hearing care professional to select and fit a hearing aid to your individual needs.
If you have reservations about your ability to adapt to amplification, you should inquire about the avail­ability of a trial-rental or purchase-option program. Many hearing care professionals now oer programs that permit you to wear a hearing aid for a period of time for a nominal fee after which you may decide if you want to purchase the hearing aid.
Federal law restricts the sale of hearing aids 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.

i Children with hearing loss (US only)
In addition to seeing a physician for a medical evaluation, a child with a hearing loss should be directed to an audiologist for evaluation and rehabilitation because hearing loss may cause problems in language development and the educational and social growth of a child. An audiologist is qualified by training and experience to assist in the evaluation and rehabilitation of a child with hearing loss.

27 Warranties and repairs
ReSound provides a warranty on hearing aids in the event of defects in workmanship or materials, as described in applicable warranty documentation. In its service policy, ReSound pledges to secure functionality at least equivalent to the original hearing aid. As a signatory to the United Nations Global Compact initiative, ReSound is committed to doing this in line with environment-friendly best practices. Hearing aids therefore, at ReSound’s discretion, may be replaced by new products or products manufac­tured from new or serviceable used parts, or repaired using new or refurbished replacement parts. The warranty period of hearing aids is designated on your warranty card, which is provided by your hearing care professional.
For hearing aids that require service, please contact your hearing care professional for assistance. ReSound hearing aids that malfunction must be repaired by a qualified technician. Do not attempt to open the case of hearing aids, as this will invalidate the warranty.
