Generally, infrequent use of the hearing system does not provide you with the full benefit of amplification. Your hearing systems will not restore normal hearing. Hearing systems will not prevent or improve hearing impairment resulting from a physiological condition. Hearing systems will help you to make better use of your residual hearing. The use of hearing systems is only part of hearing rehabilitation; auditory training and lip reading instruction may be required as weIl. Possible Side Effects The hearing system or earmold is a custom-made product. If you are experiencing discomfort, see your audiologist or hearing system dispenser immediately for modification of the hearing system or earmold at the point of irritation. A hearing system or earmold may cause an accelerated accumulation of cerumen (earwax). Also in rare cases, the otherwise non-allergenic material may cause a discharge from the ear, allergic reaction, or any other unusual condition. Please seek immediate consultation with a physician if these conditions occur. Warning to Hearing System Professionals A hearing system dispenser should advise a prospective hearing system user to consult promptly with a licensed physician (preferably an ear specialist) before dispensing a hearing system if the hearing system dispenser determines through inquiry, actual observation, or review or any other available information concerning the prospective user, that the prospective user has any of the following conditions: (i) Visible congenital or traumatic deformity of the ear. (ii) History of active drainage from the ear within the previous 90 days. (iii) History of sudden or rapidly progressive hearing loss within the previous 90 days. (iv) Acute or chronic dizziness. (v) Unilateral hearing loss of sudden or recent onset within the previous 90 days. (vi) Audiometric air-bone gap equal to or greater than 15 decibels at 500 hertz (Hz), 1000 Hz and 2000 Hz. 27 (vii) Visible evidence of significant cerumen accumulation or a foreign body in the ear canal. (viii) Pain or discomfort in the ear. Special care should be exercised in selecting and fitting a hearing system whose maximum sound pressure level exceeds 132 decibels because there may be risk of impairing the remaining hearing of the hearing system user. Important Notice for Prospective Hearing System Users Good health practice requires that a person with a hearing loss have a medical evaluation by a licensed physician (preferably a physician who specializes in diseases of the ear) before purchasing a hearing system. Licensed physicians who specialize in diseases of the ear are often referred to as otolaryngologists, otologists, or otorhinolaryngologists. The purpose of medical evaluation is to assure that all medically treatable conditions that may affect hearing are identified and treated before the hearing system is purchased. Following the medical evaluation, the physician will give you a written statement that states that your hearing loss has been medically evaluated and that you may be considered a candidate for a hearing system. The physician will refer you to an audiologist or a hearing system professional, as appropriate, for a hearing system evaluation. The audiologist or hearing system professional will conduct a hearing system evaluation to assess your ability to hear with and without a hearing system. The hearing system evaluation will enable the audiologist or dispenser to select and fit a hearing system to your individual needs. If you have reservations about your ability to adapt to amplification, you should inquire about the availability of a trial-rental or purchase-option program. Many hearing system professionals now offer programs that permit you to wear a hearing system for a period of time for a nominal fee after which you may decide if you want to purchase the hearing system. Federal law restricts the sale of hearing system to those individuals who have obtained a medical evaluation from a licensed physician. Federal law permits a fully informed adult to sign a waiver statement declining the medical evaluation for religious or personal beliefs that preclude consultation with a physician. The exercise of such a waiver is not in your best health interest and its use is strongly discouraged. 28 Children with Hearing Loss In addition to seeing a physician for a medical evaluation, a child with a hearing loss should be directed to an audiologist for evaluation and rehabilitation since hearing loss may cause problems in language development and the educational and social growth of a child. An audiologist is qualified by training and experience to assist in the evaluation and rehabilitation of a child with a hearing loss. Identification Information The year of manufacture is incorporated into the serial number. The warranty is based upon the date of purchase, not date of manufacture. The serial number may look similar to this sample: AJ12345. The second letter of this serial number refers to the date of manufacture of the hearing system. The letters progress in one-year increments, each reflecting the corresponding year. The letter J means the year of manufacture is 2002, the letter K indicates that the manufacture year is 2003, and so on. Your hearing system professional can answer any questions you may have about the identifying code on your hearing system. • • • • • • OTHER WARNINGS! • Do not use your hearing system in potentially explosive environments. If you experience dizziness, drainage or bleeding from the ear, or sudden hearing loss, see your Physician immediately. A hearing system may cause an accelerated accumulation of cerumen (earwax). Keep hearing systems out of the reach of children, pets, and individuals with diminished mental capacity. Hearing systems should be used only as directed and adjusted by your trained hearing system professional . A hearing system may stop functioning, e.g. if the battery goes dead. You should be aware of this possibility, in particular if you are in traffic or otherwise depend on warning sounds. Do not switch hearing systems between ears or allow others to wear or use your hearing systems. 29 • HEARING SYSTEMS WILL NOT RESTORE NORMAL HEARING AND WILL NOT PREVENT OR IMPROVE A HEARING IMPAIRMENT RESULTING FROM ORGANIC CONDITIONS. • IN MOST CASES, INFREQUENT USE OF A HEARING SYSTEM DOES NOT PERMIT USER TO ATTAIN FULL BENEFIT FROM IT. • THE USE OF THE HEARING SYSTEM IS ONLY PART OF HEARING HABILITATION AND MAY NEED TO BE SUPPLEMENTED BY AUDITORY TRAINING AND INSTRUCTION IN LIP READING. 30 Manufactured by Hansaton Acoustics Inc. 15650 36th Ave N Ste 110 Plymouth, MN 55446 USA Hansaton Akustik GmbH Stueckenstrasse 48 22081 Hamburg Germany www.hansaton-usa.com order@hansaton.com 74200 Distributed by 2011-07 SP Your hearing system professional · Su audioprotesista · Votre audioprothésiste:
