YOURWIDEXHEARINGAID

Welcome to Widex

Congratulations on your new hearing aid.

Use your hearing aid regularly, even if it takes some time getting used to it.

Infrequent users don’t usually get the full benefit of a hearing aid.

NOTE

Your hearing aid and its accessories may not look exactly as illustrated in this

booklet. We also reserve the right to make any changes we consider necessary.

Your hearing aid at a glance

The illustration shows your hearing aid without the ear-set. For further in-

formation on the ear-set see the ear-set manual. The ear-set consists of a

tube and an ear-tip or earmould, and it is the part of your hearing aid that

you wear inside your ear.

Important safety information

Read these pages carefully before you begin using your hearing aid.

Hearing aids andbatteries can be dangerous if swallowed or used im-

properly. Swallowing or improper use can result in severe injury or even

fatalities. In case ofingestion, contact your local emergency number or

hospital immediately.

Take your hearing aids out when you are not using them. This will help to

ventilate the ear canal and prevent ear infections.

Contact your doctor orhearing care professional immediately if you sus-

pect you may have an ear infection or an allergic reaction.

Contact your hearing care professional if the hearing aid doesn't feel

comfortable, or if it doesn't fit properly, causing irritation, redness or the

like.

Remove your hearing aids before showering, swimming or using a hair

dryer.

Do not wear your hearing aids when applying perfume, spray, gels, lotion

or cream.

Do not dry your hearing aid in a microwave oven - this will ruin it.

Never use other people’s hearing aids and never allow others to use

yours, as this could damage your hearing.

Never use your hearingaids in environments where there may be explo-

sive gases, such as in mines, etc.

Keep hearing aids, their parts, accessories and batteries away from chil-

dren and mentally disabled people.

Never try to open or repair the hearing aid yourself. Contact your hearing

care professional if you need to have your hearing aid repaired.

Your hearing aids contain radio communication technology. Always ob-

serve the environment in which you are using them. If any restrictions ap-

ply, you must take precautions to comply with these.

Your hearing aid is very powerful and it can play sounds that exceed a

level of 132 dB. There may therefore be a risk of damaging your remain-

ing hearing.

Do not expose your hearing aids to extreme temperatures or high humid-

ity, and dry them quickly if they get wet, or if you perspire heavily.

Your hearing aids should be stored and transported within the temperature

and humidity ranges of -20°C to +55°C (-4°F to 131°F) and 10%-95% rH.

Your hearing aids are designed to operate from 0°C (32°F) to 50°C (122°F).

Indications for use

The REGULAR model is indicated for individuals with a range of hearing loss

from minimal (0 dB HL) to severe-to-profound (95 dB HL) and all hearing

loss configurations.

The HIGH POWER model is indicated for individuals with a range of hearing

loss from minimal (20 dB HL) to severe-to-profound (110 dB HL) and all

hearing loss configurations.

They are to be programmed by licensed hearing care professionals (audiol-

ogists, hearing aid specialists, otolaryngologists) who are trained in hearing

(re)habilitation.

Intended use

The hearing aids are intended as air conduction amplification devices to be

used in everyday listening environments. The hearing aids may be equipped

with the Zen program intended to provide a relaxing sound background (i.e.

music/noise source) for adults who desire to listen to such a background in

quiet.

The battery

For REGULAR models: use a type 312 zinc-air battery.

For HIGH POWER models: use a type 13 zinc-air battery.

Always use a fresh, new battery that is precisely the kind recommended by

your hearing care professional.

NOTE

Check that the battery is completely clean and free of any residue before insert-

ing it in the hearing aid.Otherwise your hearing aid may not function as expec-

ted.

Never attempt torecharge your hearing aid batteries, as theycould ex-

plode.

Never leave a flat battery in the hearing aids while storing them. It could

leak and ruin your hearing aid.

Dispose of used batteries as indicated on the packaging and take note of

the expiry date.

Low battery indication

When the battery is flat, a sound signal will play. If the battery drains sud-

denly there may however be no warning. We recommend carrying a spare

battery with you wherever you go.

Changing the battery

To change the battery, do as follows:

Take the adhesive tab off the new battery and make

sure there is no sticky substance left on it. Let it

"breathe" for 60 seconds.
