SYMBOLS

The following symbols will be used throughout the

manual:

WARNING

Messages with this heading indicate serious adverse reactions,

potential safety hazards and inadequate performance of device.

CAUTION

Messages with this heading indicate/include information regard-

ing any special care to be exercised.

Not for general waste.

DESCRIPTION OF THE HEARING AID

Your hearing aid is used with an ear-set which consists

of a tube and an ear-tip or earmold.

The illustration below shows the hearing aid without

the ear-set. The choice of ear-set solution depends on

your specific needs. Please refer to the separate ear-set

user manual.

1. Microphone openings

2. Volume control (optional)

3. Program button

4. On/off switch

5. Battery drawer with nail grip

Your hearing aid may be provided with a listening pro-

gram called Zen. It makes musical tones (and some-

times a rushing noise) in the background. These sounds

are shaped according to your hearing loss.

NOTE

In addition to these user instructions, a separate user manual is

provided describing the various ear-set solutions available for

your hearing aid: “Ear-sets for Widex BTE hearing aids”.

WARNING

This booklet and the manual “Ear-sets for Widex BTE hearing

aids” contain important information and instructions. Read

these booklets carefully before you start using the hearing aid.

NOTE

Your hearing aid, ear-set and accessories may not look exactly

as illustrated in this booklet. We also reserve the right to make

any changes considered necessary.

Intended use

The hearing aids are intended as air conduction amplifi-

cation devices to be used in everyday listening environ-

ments. The hearing aids may be provided with the Zen

program intended to provide a relaxing sound back-

ground (i.e. music/noise source) for adults who desire

to listen to such a background in quiet.

Indications for use

The devices are indicated for individuals with a range of

hearing loss severity from minimal (10 dB HL) to severe

(80 dB HL) and all hearing loss configurations.

They are to be programmed by licensed hearing care

professionals (audiologists, hearing aid specialists, oto-

laryngologists) who are trained in hearing (re)habilita-

tion as well as tinnitus management.

Right/left identification

If you wear hearing aids on both ears,

the hearing aids can be provided with

colored marks (red mark = right and

blue mark = left).

The arrow shows the position of the

identification mark.

Acoustic indicators

The hearing aid may be set to produce a signal to in-

dicate the use of certain functions. The signal may

be tones (SmartTone) or a spoken message (Smart-

Speak)*. The signal can also be deactivated.

The battery

We recommend zinc-air batteries. Use a size 13 battery

for the hearing aid.

To obtain replacement batteries, please consult your

hearing care professional. It is important to take note

of the expiration date and the recommendations on

the battery pack regarding disposal of used batteries.

Otherwise there is a risk that the battery life may be re-

duced.

Inserting the battery

Before inserting a new battery into the

hearing aid, remember to remove the ad-

hesive tab. Once the tab has been removed,

the battery will start functioning after a few

seconds.

CAUTION

Do not use batteries if there is a sticky residue from the tab or

other unwanted substance, as this can cause the hearing aid to

malfunction.

Use the nail grip to gently swing the

battery drawer open.

Place the battery in the drawer, so that the plus (+) sign

on the battery faces upward. You can use the battery

magnet provided to steer the battery into place.

If the battery drawer does not close easily, the battery

is incorrectly inserted.

When changing battery, it is a good idea to hold the

hearing aid over a table.

The hearing aid may be provided with a special battery

drawer, helping to secure the battery in the drawer. This

type of drawer can be a good choice if the hearing aid

is worn by a child.
