Intended Purpose
The intended purpose of the hearing aids is to selectively amplify
sound and transmit it to the ear to compensate for the hearing of
hearing impaired people.
Its use is not intended for children or people with mental disabilities.
•
The MICROSON AMPLEX BTE, 80 PRO BTE and 800 PRO BTE hearing
aid is intended to compensate for mild to severe hearing loss
(transmissive, mixed or neurosensory).
•
The MICROSON AMPLEX BTE P, 80 PRO BTE P and 800 PRO BTE
P hearing aid is intended to compensate for moderate to severe
hearing loss (transmissive, mixed or neurosensory).
•
The MICROSON AMPLEX BTE HP, 80 PRO BTE HP and 800 PRO BTE
HP hearing aid is intended to compensate for moderate to profound
hearing loss (transmissive, mixed or neurosensory).
•
The MICROSON AMPLEX II BTE P hearing aid is intended to
compensate for moderate to severe hearing loss (transmissive, mixed
or neurosensory).
The prescription and adaptation of the hearing aids must be performed
by a hearing health professional, who will perform the programming
and specific adjustment for hearing loss and the morphology of the
user in a completely personalized manner. Therefore, using hearing
aids not prescribed by a professional or adapted for another person
can damage your hearing.
Operation Principles
See Figure 3
BTE (Behind the Ear) is a type of anatomical hearing aids housed
behind the ear. They are powered by a battery and typically intended
to cover severe or profound hearing loss. All mechanical and
electronic components are contained in an ergonomic box. They
are adapted to the wearer’s ear by means of custom earmolds or
adapters from which a conductive tube comes out, attached to the
tube of the hearing aid or to the thin tube.
Earmolds and conductive tube / adapters and thin tube:
responsible for conducting sound and allowing the device to be
adapted to the ear using a custom earmold or adapter.
Microphone:
gathers sound and converts it into an electric signal.
Amplifier:
digital processor, which collects the signal and adapts it
to the parameters entered for each loss.
Receiver:
converts the electrical signal into sound and transmits it,
already amplified, to the user’s ear.
Battery (insertion and change)
See Figure 4
Open the battery compartment
Remove the battery cover and position it with the “+” symbol facing
up. Close the battery compartment.
i
If the battery is not well-placed, the hearing aid will not
function.
To remove the battery, put the hearing aid upside down, open the
battery compartment and allow the battery to fall in your hand.
