Intended use

A Hearing aid can be adjusted across all sound frequencies to

help anyone cope with hearing loss. Personal uncomfortable

sound levels are measured so that an individualise setting can be

programmed to enhance speech clarity in both quite and noisy

environment which will greatly reduce listening eort.

The hearing aids are typically designed to last for up to

6 years. Factors aecting the lifespan of the aid are listed in .

the Safety Instructions for use guide.

All Hearing aids including a Tinnitus noiser function must be

individually ﬁtted by a Hearing Care professional or an ENT

doctor.

 INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on the purchase of your new audifon hearing

aids. Your hearing care professional has set this for your individual

requirements. These instructions are therefore intended to help

you use your audifon hearing aids properly.

Please read through the following operating and care

instructions carefully to avoid malfunctions and damage. If you

follow the instructions, your hearing aids will prove an invaluable

help in day-to-day communication in your surroundings and with

other people.

The speciﬁc model of your hearing aids is shown on the sticker on

the packaging, on the warranty card or printed on the the body of

the hearing aid.

A hearing aid cannot restore your hearing to normal or cure

your hearing loss and neither will it make your hearing worse.

However, a hearing aid will go a long way to restoring normal

hearing levels for many of those activities you may have been

missing out on. Hearing aids are the treatment of choice for most

types of hearing loss.

If you have any further questions, please contact your hearing

care professional.

The detailed acoustic data of your hearing aid can be found in a

separate data speciﬁcation. This and further information are

available from your hearing care professional or www.audifon.com.

.. Information on battery

A zinc air battery is used to supply power for your hearing aids.

This type of battery is only activated when oxygen comes

through the air holes into the button cell and a chemical

reaction is initiated. During production, the air holes are

sealed with a protective strip. This means that the battery

remains fresh until use, and it lasts longer when it is sealed.

Removing the protective strip allows oxygen to enter and the

chemical reaction is initiated.

Reﬁtting the strip when the battery is not in use will not

extend its service life.

Battery should be stored at room temperature.

Avoid keeping them in hot places or rooms with high

humidity (e.g. bathroom). Storage in a cooled location is not

necessary.

Used batteries are considered hazardous materials and

contain toxic materials, should never be disposed of in the

trash. Ask about recycling programs in your area where

you live or return them to your hearing care professional to

dispose them appropriately.

Further safety instructions can be found on the battery

packaging.

.. Low battery warning

audifon hearing aids are equipped with a low battery signal

which can be heard as a series of beeps approximately

30 minutes before the end of the battery life. The wireless

function will be switched o, when the battery becomes empty.

You can tell this because after your devices have been switched

ON, the pairing melody plays in both hearing aids.

After the hearing aids have been paired, all settings made in one

device are also activated to the second device. The tones and

melodies are played in both hearing aids with a slight delay.

If the connection is broken, you do not need to take action.

The devices renew the connection quickly by themselves.
