Congratulations !
As t e owner of a new earing system, you may once again
enjoy t e sounds of your environment, and conversation
wit your family and friends.
T ese instructions as well as guidance from your earing
instrument specialist will elp you understand ow your new
earing system works. In t is guide, you’ll find instructions
about t e insertion, removal and use of your INTUISTM ea-
ring system. T ere are also tips and information on proper
andling, cleaning, care and c anging of t e batteries. In
addition, a troubles ooting section is offered for your refe-
rence.
Your earing improvement wit a earing system depends
on t e fit of t e earing instruments, t e type and degree
of earing loss, and proper diagnostic testing. Of course, a
earing system cannot restore normal earing, and not
everyone will benefit equally.
More t an 80 percent of individuals wit a earing loss ave
a earing loss in bot ears. Studies s ow t at even w en a
earing loss is worse in one ear, most people wit a earing
loss in bot ears will benefit from wearing two instruments.
Remember, a earing system consists of finely-tuned devices
t at ave been specially designed and expertly adjusted for
your individual needs. Proper care and andling will ensure
t e best possible performance of your INTUISTM earing
system.
