Welcome4

Thank you for choosing our hearing instruments to
accompany you through everyday life. Like anything new,
it may take you a little time to become familiar with them.

This guide, along with support from your Hearing Care
Professional, will help you understand the advantages
and greater quality of life your hearing instruments offer.

To receive the most benefit from your hearing
instruments, it is recommended that you wear them every
day, all day. This will help you get adjusted to them.

CAUTION

It is important to read this user guide and the safety
manual thoroughly and completely. Follow the
safety information to avoid damage or injury.

Your hearing instruments 5

This user guide describes optional features that
your hearing instruments may or may not have.

Ask your Hearing Care Professional to indicate the
features that are valid for your hearing instruments.

Instrument type

Your hearing instruments are customized models that
have been individually manufactured based on the
anatomy of your ears. They are worn directly in the
ear, either in the bowl of the ear or deep inside the ear
canal. They are not suitable for infants, small children or
mentally disabled persons.

Getting to know your hearing instruments

It is recommended to familiarize yourself with your new
hearing instruments. With the instruments in your hand
try using the controls and note their location on the
instrument. This will make it easier for you to feel and
press the controls while wearing the hearing instruments.

If you have problems pressing the controls of your
hearing instruments while wearing them, you can
ask your Hearing Care Professional about a remote
control option.
