Please read the information on the following pages

before using your hearing aid.

A hearing aid will not restore normal hearing and

will not prevent or improve a hearing impairment

resulting from organic conditions. Infrequent use

of a hearing aid does not permit a user to attain full

beneﬁt from it. The use of a hearing aid is only

part of hearing habilitation and may need to be

supplemented by auditory training and instruction

in lipreading.

2.1Hazard warnings

Use only hearing aids that have been specially pro-

grammed 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.

2. Important safety information

Hearing aid batteries are toxic if they are swallowed!

Keep out of reach of children and pets. If batteries

are swallowed, consult your physician immediately!

If you feel pain in or behind your ear, if it is inﬂamed

or if skin irritation and accelerated accumulations

of ear wax occur, please check with your hearing care

professional or physician.

Hearing programs in the directional microphone

mode reduce background noises. Please be aware

that warning signals or noises coming from behind,

e. g. cars, are partially or entirely suppressed.

The hearing aid contains small parts which can be

swallowed by children.

External devices may only be connected if they

have been tested in accordance with corresponding

IECXXXXX standards. Only use accessories approved

by Phonak AG.

2.2 Information on product safety

Your hearing aid is resistant to water, sweat and

dust under the conditions listed in chapter 5. After

exposure to any of these elements the hearing aid

must be cleaned and dried.

Protect your hearing aid from heat (never leave it

near a window or in the car). Never use a microwave

or other heating devices to dry your hearing aid.

Ask your hearing care professional about suitable

drying methods.

When you are not using your hearing aid, leave

the battery compartment open so that any

moisture can evaporate. Make sure that you always

completely dry your hearing aid after use. Store

the hearing aid in a safe, dry and clean place.

Do not drop your hearing aid! Dropping onto a hard

surface can damage your hearing aid.

Always use new batteries for your hearing aid.

You can return used batteries to your hearing care

professional.

Remove the battery if you are not using your hearing

aid for a long period of time.

X-ray radiation (e. g. CT scans, MRI scans) may

adversely affect the correct functioning of your

hearing aid. We recommend that you remove

them before undergoing X-ray procedures and keep

them outside the room.

Do not use your hearing aid in areas where electronic
