Do not leave the charger cradle in places subject to extremely high temperatures.Failure to heed this caution may cause a fire or seriously damage your Hearing Hub.When connecting your Hearing Hub to other external devices via an audio cable, be sure to connect only to devices compliant with electric safety standards.pNon-safety compliant devices may pose a shock hazard when inter-connected if their insulation is inadequate.pDo not use broken or modified devices.9*/#AGPIDQQMࡍ࡯ࠫ㧞㧜㧝㧝ᐕ㧝㧜᦬㧞㧝ᣣޓ㊄ᦐᣣޓඦ೨㧥ᤨ㧟㧣ಽ
Safety precautions (Continued)14Before UseWARNINGHandle the neckloop antenna carefully.When you are hanging the Hearing Hub around your neck, choking and strangulation can occur when the neckloop antenna accidentally gets caught on something or get tangled around the neck and cause you to choke.pDo not twirl, spin, or play with your neckloop antenna to avoid the possibility of accidentally hitting someone with your neckloop antenna. Do not insert the connector pin of the neckloop antenna into any terminals of other devices.It can cause a shock hazard.CAUTIONMake sure the volume level is safe and appropriate before use.Exposure to loud sounds or excessive sound levels can cause damage to your hearing. Adjust the volume to the most appropriate level.9*/#AGPIDQQMࡍ࡯ࠫ㧞㧜㧝㧝ᐕ㧝㧜᦬㧞㧝ᣣޓ㊄ᦐᣣޓඦ೨㧥ᤨ㧟㧣ಽ
15Before UseCAUTIONKeep your wireless device away from excessive moisture and extreme temperatures.Do not leave your wireless device inside a vehicle including a trunk or in places where the temperature may exceed 140 °F (60 °C), such as on a car dashboard, window sill, or behind a glass that is exposed to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet light for extended periods of time. If you park outside during the summer months, your car will heat up quickly. The temperature inside the car can reach 140 °F (60 °ヤ). The heat will deteriorate the coating on the outer surface of the Hearing Hub and materials of the parts and components. This may damage the product, overheat the battery, or pose a risk to the vehicle.Do not let your wireless device come into contact with skin for an extended period of time.The prolonged, intense contact between skin and the Hearing Hub can cause thermal injury or thermal burn.*1*1 Individuals who have difficulties in any of the following areas tend to burn easily: blood vessel, blood circulation, diabetes, high blood pressure and haptic sense.9*/#AGPIDQQMࡍ࡯ࠫ㧞㧜㧝㧝ᐕ㧝㧜᦬㧞㧝ᣣޓ㊄ᦐᣣޓඦ೨㧥ᤨ㧟㧣ಽ
Safety precautions (Continued)16Before UseCAUTIONDo not use your wireless device near any equipment that emits high frequency radio waves or generates a strong magnetic field.Your hearing instrument may emit acoustic feedback, which can result in damage to the ear. Stop using your wireless device or get them out of electromagnetic fields.Turn off your wireless device while undergoing any kind of electromagnetic treatment such as X-Rays, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Computerized Axial Tomography (CAT), Electroencephalogram (EEG), Electrocardiogram (ECG), Short-Wave Diathermy, or other electrical or magnetic treatment.Inspect your wireless device before each use. Do not use it if damaged.Rugged projection like sharp edges and rough burrs protruding from the surface of the Hearing Hub can cause cuts and nicks to the skin.pWhen cleaning the Hearing Hub, wipe it gently with a soft cloth. Never use organic solvents such as alcohol, paint thinner, or benzene. Failure to heed this caution may result in deformation of the hearing instrument or cracking on the surface.If the safety mechanism of your neckloop antenna is removed, put the neckloop antenna back together.Incomplete connection could result in accidents that might hurt yourself and others by dropping the device or letting the connector pin exposed. For example, the device might drop on your foot or the connector pin might scratch someone's body.9*/#AGPIDQQMࡍ࡯ࠫ㧞㧜㧝㧝ᐕ㧝㧜᦬㧞㧝ᣣޓ㊄ᦐᣣޓඦ೨㧥ᤨ㧟㧣ಽ

20Before UseGeneral Bluetooth® descriptionBluetooth® is a short range wireless radio technology that allows electronic devices to communicate with each other. It eliminates the need for the cables that connect devices together.You need a Bluetooth® enabled device.To use your Bluetooth® mobile phone and landline phone through the Hearing Hub, they need to have either Bluetooth® profile:pHands-Free ProfilepHeadset ProfileIf your phone has both the profiles, select “Hands-Free Profile”.Bluetooth® pairing processPairing is a special process used when two devices connect for the first time. The pairing process is used to generate a link key that is used for authentication purposes during subsequent Bluetooth® connections between the two devices. Normally, once a Bluetooth® accessory has been paired with the device, it can be used with the device, without the need for re-pairing, assuming the appropriate profile exists for the required service. However, some devices may require pairing process each time they are used. Refer to the manual that came with your Bluetooth® device for further details.The battery power drain does not affect information on the established connection. In other words, pairing is remembered and preserved regardless of the remaining power.The Bluetooth® word mark and logos are owned by the Bluetooth SIG, Inc. and any use of such marks by Panasonic Corporation is under license.
