General
• Please be aware that the use of any type of hearing
aid may involve a slightly increased risk of infection
in the ear canal. An infection can arise as a result of
inadequate ventilation of the ear. Therefore, we rec-
ommend that you remove the hearing aid and ear-
set from your ear at night to allow the ear canal to be
ventilated. Make sure that you clean and inspect your
hearing aid and ear-set as required. If an infection oc-
curs, you should seek medical attention and contact
your hearing care professional for advice on how to
disinfect the various hearing aid parts. Do not under
any circumstances use alcohol, chlorine or similar
substances.
Accessories
Audio input
The hearing aid can be furnished with an audio shoe.
This allows direct connection to different kinds of ac-
cessories (FM and CROS/Bi-CROS systems), as well as
external audio equipment (radio, TV, etc.). In this way
the sound from, for example, a radio or someone pro-
vided with an FM microphone can be sent directly into
the hearing aid.
In the standard setting, the hearing aid automatically
switches to an audio program when an audio shoe is
attached. If you then wish to switch to one of the other
programs, you must use the program button on the
hearing aid. As soon as you remove the audio shoe, the
usual program order is re-established.
On the form on the next page, your hearing care pro-
fessional can make a note of the audio programs you
have access to and where they are located.
