Introduction

Thank you for choosing our hearing aids. We recommend that you use your hearing aids every day.

This way you will fully benefit from them.

NOTE: Read this booklet carefully before you start using your hearing aids.

Intended use

Generic air-conduction hearing aids are wearable sound-amplifying devices intended to compensate

for impaired hearing. The fundamental operating principle of hearing aids is to receive, amplify, and

transfer sound to the eardrum of a hearing impaired person.

For devices including a Tinnitus Sound Generator module

The Tinnitus Sound Generator module is a tool to generate sounds to be used in a Tinnitus

Management Program to temporarily relieve patients suffering from Tinnitus.

For devices including a dome

The dome is intended to be connected to a receiver tube on the hearing aid. The dome is intended to

ensure that the sound outlet of the hearing aid is placed in the ear canal.

Introduction 5

This accessory is intended to be used by the same age group as the hearing aid. The accessory is

intended to be used by lay persons.
