Your new Senso Vita SV-9
We hope you will be pleased with your new Widex
hearing aid. We have included these user’s instruc-
tions to inform you about the various aspects associ-
ated with wearing hearing aids. The instructions are
made up of two parts: The first part is an introduction
to life as a hearing aid user, how to get used to new
sounds, etc. The second part contains facts about
your hearing aid. How to operate and maintain it and
what you can do if you experience problems. Both
parts are equally important, so we recommend that
you read the entire booklet to get full satisfaction of
the quality and performance we have built into your
new Senso Vita SV-9 hearing aid.

A world of new sounds
Becoming a hearing aid user can be an exciting chal-
lenge. Your hearing aid does not restore normal hear-
ing, but it brings back sounds that you may not have
heard or thought about for years - everyday sounds
such as a ticking clock, dripping water, the television,
the car, footsteps on hard floors, children’s voices,
music, doors banging, laughter, tools, machinery, etc.
All these sounds can be a bit overwhelming. Try to
identify and localize the sounds you are not accus-
tomed to hearing. Once you get used to hearing
these everyday sounds again, they will become a part
of your active world of sounds.
5
Having something in your ear
Your ears need to become accustomed to your new
hearing aids. If you are a first-time user, you also have
to get used to having something in your ear. It is not
uncommon to feel a sensation of pressure in the ear
for the first few days and your ear canal may feel
warm and a bit sore. But if wearing the hearing aid
causes you outright discomfort, you should consult
the hearing healthcare professional where you re-
ceived your hearing aid.
6
Practice makes perfect
It is a good idea to start slowly and wear your hearing
aids for just short intermittent periods of time, for ex-
ample one or two hours, and first try them in situa-
tions with few people and not too much noise. Grad-
ually you can use them for longer periods of time and
in noisier environments. It is important that you allow
yourself the time needed to get used to the new
sounds and the new sensation in your ears.
7
The road to better hearing and a more active
everyday life
Your hearing aids may help you regain the pleasure of
communicating with other people and increase your
quality of life. So, although it may feel like a big chal-
lenge in the beginning, it will be worth the effort.
8
Help to help yourself
Most modern hearing aids are designed with a multi-
tude of options, settings and features to benefit most
hearing aid users. Your Senso Vita SV-9 hearing aid is
set individually to your hearing loss and hearing to en-
sure the best and most comfortable sound reproduc-
tion.
After a period of use, your hearing aid may have to be
fine tuned by your hearing healthcare professional.
Maybe you have discovered new needs or maybe
there are situations where the loudness level or sound
reproduction is not satisfactory. The more details you
can provide for your hearing healthcare professional
about your initial experience with the hearing aids,
the easier it is to find the right solution. Before your
next consultation with your hearing healthcare pro-
fessional, it is important that you notice how your
new hearing aids feel.
9
Make a note of the situations where you are not satis-
fied and why. Is the problem related to low frequency,
high frequency, weak or loud sounds? Is it all the time
or only in specific situations? Try to describe your ex-
periences as detailed as possible so that you and your
hearing healthcare professional have something to go
on when you meet again.
