1. Welcome

Thank you for choosing Lyric, the first extended wear

hearing aid that is 100% invisible. Your Lyric hearing

aid requires a lot less interaction and handling compared

to conventional hearing aids. We are convinced that

your hearing aid will provide valuable beneﬁts to your

daily life.

The nature of the Lyric hearing aid requires it to be

inserted by a Lyric trained hearing care professional.

This user guide is intended to supplement and not

replace any advice from your hearing care professional.

Please read this user guide carefully in order to safely

operate your Lyric hearing aid and to beneﬁt from all

the possibilities it has to offer.

If you have any questions, please consult your hearing

care professional.

Please read the information on the following pages

when you are using your hearing aid for the ﬁrst time.

2.1Hazard warnings

Use only hearing aids that have been specially

programmed for you by your hearing care

professional. Other systems may be ineffective

and may, in certain cases, damage your hearing.

Changes or modiﬁcations to the hearing aid that

were not explicitly approved by Phonak are not

permitted. Such changes may damage your ear or

the hearing aid.

The hearing aid is a potential choking or swallowing

hazard so it should be kept out of reach of children

and pets. If hearing aids are swallowed, consult your

medical practitioner immediately!

2.2 Information on product safety

Wearing Lyric:

Medical imaging procedures (e.g. CT scans, MRI

scans) may adversely affect the correct functioning

of your hearing aid. Lyric must be removed before

you have an MRI scan because it contains metallic

parts. Please see chapter 6 for detailed information

concerning X-ray procedures.

Do not submerge your head in water. Water

submersion may cause damage to the hearing aid.

Do not scuba dive or dive underwater. Diving while

wearing Lyric may cause injury to your ear or damage

to the hearing aid.

Do not skydive while wearing Lyric.

Once Lyric is removed, it cannot be reinserted.

8

Do not put cotton swabs or anything else in your

ear canal. They could damage the hearing aid and/

or injure your ear.

If Lyric stops working for any reason, it must be

removed within 24 hours, and a Lyric trained hearing

care professional should examine your ear canal.

Using SoundLync:

The SoundLync should not rest against the skin of

those with allergies to nickel.

If you use a medical device such as a pacemaker,

do not place the SoundLync in your breast pocket.
