47USER GUIDE NANO BTEInternational WarrantyYour hearing aid is covered by an international limited warranty issued by the manufacturer from the date of delivery. This limited warranty covers manufacturing and material defects in the hearing aid itself, but not accessories such as batteries, tubing, ear wax filters etc. Problems arising from improper handling or care, excessive use, accidents, repairs made by an unauthorized party, exposure to corrosive conditions, physical changes in your ear, damage due to foreign objects entering the device, or incorrect adjustments are NOT covered by the limited warranty and may void it. The above warranty does not affect any legal rights that you might have under applicable national legislation governing sale of consumer goods. Your hearing care professional may have issued a warranty that goes beyond the clauses of this limited warranty. Please consult him/her for further information. If you need serviceTake your hearing aid to your hearing care professional, who may be able to sort out minor problems and adjustments immediately.

49USER GUIDE NANO BTEMobile PhoneSome hearing aid users have reported a buzzing sound in their hearing aid when they are using mobile phones, indicating that the mobile phone and hearing aid may not be compatible.The ANSI C63.19 standard determines the prediction of compatibility between a specific hearing aid and a mobile phone by adding the numerical value of the rating for the hearing aid immunity to the numerical value of the rating for the mobile phone emissions. A sum of 4 would indicate that the combination of wireless device and hearing aid is usable; a combined rating that equals 5 would provide normal use; a combined rating of 6 or greater would indicate excellent performance.Whereas all hearing aids have acoustic coupling, only the larger instruments have the physical space for telecoil (inductive) coupling. These two types of coupling have different rating scales (M1-M4 for acoustic coupling and T1-T4 for telecoil coupling, respectively) and both ratings are therefore relevant when predicting the compatibility of a particular instrument.
50 SONICFor a hearing aid with both acoustic coupling and telecoil coupling with a rating of M4/T2 and with a telephone rating of M3/T3, the combined rating is 7 (M4 + M3) for the acoustic coupling and 5 (T2 + T3) for the telecoil coupling. According to the guideline given above, both types of coupling will thereby be acceptable, with the acoustic coupling indicating excellent performance and the telecoil coupling indicating normal use. The above equipment performance measurements, categories and system classifications are based upon the best information available, but it cannot be guaranteed that all users will be satisfied. The immunity of all Sonic hearing instrument models covered by these instructions for use is at least M2.Important NoticeThe performance of individual hearing instruments may vary with individual cell phones. Therefore, please try this hearing instrument with your mobile phone or, if you are purchasing a new phone, be sure to try it with your hearing instrument prior to purchase. For additional guidance, please ask your cell phone provider for the booklet entitled “Hearing Aid Compatibility with Digital Wireless Cell Phones”.
