9 TROUBLESHOOTING
If you experience any malfunctions when using your hearing
aids, this does not necessarily mean that they are faulty.
Therefore please first check your hearing aid to make sure that:
•
the hearing aid is switched ON (see "Switching ON and OFF"
Section 3.4),
•
the batteries are not weak or dead,
•
the volume control is not at the lowest setting (increase the
volume slightly if necessary),
•
the right program has been set
(change program if necessary),
•
the receiver unit / earwax protection system is not blocked.
If this does not eliminate the fault, consult your hearing care
professional, who will be pleased to help.
Note: Malfunctions!
Your devices may be subject to interference from other
electrical equipment despite their EMC-compatible design.
In this case move away from the source of interference.
Warning: Risk of suffocation!
Batteries, hearing aids and other small parts can be swallo-
wed. For this reason, these hearing aids are not intended for
use by children under 36 months of age. Never leave children
unattended with your hearing aids! Should a battery,
hearing aid or other small parts be accidentally swallowed,
please consult a doctor immediately.
Warning: Risk of injury!
In some very rare cases the dome may remain in the ear
canal on removal. Should this happen, please contact your
doctor or hearing care professional at once. Please do not
try to remove the dome yourself.
Warning: Damage to hearing!
The maximum volume of the noiser modul is in a range that
may lead to hearing loss according to OSHA regulations.
For users without hearing loss, the noiser modul should not
exceed sound pressure levels above 70 dB SPL (as measured
at a 2cc coupler). For users with hearing loss, the hearing
loss needs to be taken into consideration when adjusting
the noise levels. Under no circumstances should the noiser
module be used at a volume that is uncomfortable to the
user.
For sound pressure levels up to 80 db SPL (as measured at
the 2cc coupler) the noiser module can be used for up to 8
hours daily. For higher sound pressure levels, the uncritical
duration of applications is reduced. The noiser modul should
not be used for more than 2 hours daily at higher sound
pressure levels.
