stuck in your ear canal, it is strongly recommended
to see a medical specialist for safe removal.
17
8. Push button

10. Care and maintenance
Diligent and routine care of your hearing aid contributes
to outstanding performance and a long service life.
Please use the following specifications as a guideline. For
further information regarding product safety, see
chapter 16.2.
General information
Before using hair spray or applying cosmetics, you should
remove your hearing aid from your ear, because these
products may damage it.
When you are not using your hearing aid, leave the
battery door open so that any moisture can evaporate.
Make sure that you always completely dry your hearing
aid after use. Store the hearing aid in a safe, dry and
clean place.
Your hearing aids are resistant to water, sweat and dust
under the following conditions:
20
• The battery door is fully closed. Ensure that no foreign
object such as hair is caught in the battery door when it
is closed.
• After exposure to water, sweat or dust, the hearing aid
is cleaned and dried.
• The hearing aid is used and maintained as described in
this user guide.
Hearing aids with the design-integrated Roger
receiver are also water resistant.
Hearing aids with an audio shoe and Roger
universal receiver are not water resistant.
Use of your hearing aid around water can restrict
air flow to the batteries causing it to stop working.
Should your hearing aid stop working after coming
into contact with water, refer to the
troubleshooting steps in chapter 15.
21
Daily
Inspect the earmold (dome or SlimTip) and tube for
earwax and moisture deposits. Clean the surfaces with a
lint-free cloth or use the small brush provided in the
hearing aid hard case. Never use cleaning agents such as
household detergents, soap, etc. for cleaning your hearing
aid. It is not recommended to rinse these parts with water,
risk for lodging in the tube. If you need to clean your
hearing aid intensively, ask your hearing care professional
for advice and information on filters or drying capsules.
Weekly
Clean the earmold (dome or SlimTip) with a soft, damp
cloth or with a special cleaning cloth for hearing aids. For
further maintenance or cleaning instructions, please see
your hearing care professional.
Monthly
Inspect your hearing tube for color changes, hardening, or
cracks. In the case of such changes, the hearing tube has
to be replaced. Please see your hearing care professional.

16. Important safety information
Please read the information on the following pages before
using your hearing aid.
A hearing aid will not restore normal hearing and will not
prevent or improve a hearing impairment resulting from
organic conditions. Infrequent use of a hearing aid does not
permit a user to attain full benefit from it. The use of a
hearing aid is only part of hearing habilitation and may
need to be supplemented by auditory training and
instruction in lipreading.
38
16.1 Hazard warnings
The intended use of
hearing aids is to amplify
and transmit sound to the
ears and hereby
compensate for impaired
hearing. The hearing aids
(specially programmed for
each hearing loss) must
only be used by the
intended person. They
should not be used by any
other person as they could
damage hearing.
Changes or modifications
to the hearing aid that
were not explicitly
approved by Phonak are
not permitted. Such
changes may damage your
ear or the hearing aid.
Do not use the hearing
aids in explosive areas
(oxygen-rich environments,
mines or industrial areas
with danger of explosions).
Hearing aid batteries are
toxic if they are swallowed!
Keep out of reach of
children and mentally
challenged people or pets.
If batteries are swallowed,
consult your physician
immediately!
39
If you feel pain in or
behind your ear, if it is
inflamed or if skin
irritation and accelerated
accumulations of earwax
occur, please check with
your hearing care
professional or physician.
In very rare cases, the
dome can remain in your
ear canal when removing
the hearing tube from the
ear. In the unlikely case
that the dome does get
stuck in your ear canal, it is
strongly recommended to
see a physician for safe
removal.
40
Hearing programs in the
directional microphone
mode reduce background
noises. Please be aware
that warning signals or
noises coming from
behind, e. g. cars, are
partially or entirely
suppressed.
This hearing aid is not for
children below 36 months.
It contains small parts that
can cause choking, if
swallowed by children.
Keep out of reach of
children and mentally
challenged people or pets.
If swallowed, consult a
physician or hospital
immediately.
External devices may only
be connected if they have
been tested in accordance
with corresponding
IECXXXXX standards. Only
use accessories approved
by Phonak AG, to avoid any
electrical shock.
that interference can also
be caused by power lines,
electrostatic discharge,
airport metal detectors etc.
• Keep magnets (i.e. battery
handling tool, EasyPhone
magnet, etc.) at least
15 cm (6 inches) away
from the active implant.
The following is only
applicable for persons with
active implantable medical
devices (i.e. pacemakers,
defibrillators, etc.):
• Keep the wireless hearing
aid at least 15 cm
(6 inches) away from the
active implant. If you
experience any interference,
do not use the wireless
hearing aids and contact
the manufacturer of the
active implant. Please, note
41
16.2 Information on product safety
Phonak hearing aids are
water resistant and not
waterproof. They are
designed to withstand
normal activities and
occasional accidental
exposure to extreme
conditions. Never immerse
your hearing aid in water!
Phonak hearing aids are not
specifically designed for
extended periods of water
submersion on a continual
basis, that is worn in
activities such as swimming
or bathing. Always remove
your hearing aid before
these activities, as the
hearing aid contains
sensitive electronic parts.
42
Never wash the
microphone inputs. Doing
so could cause it to lose its
special acoustic features.
Protect your hearing aid
from heat (never leave near
a window or in the car).
Never use a microwave or
other heating devices to
dry your hearing aid. Ask
your hearing care
professional about suitable
drying methods.
When you are not using
your hearing aid, leave the
battery door open so that
any moisture can evaporate.
Make sure that you always
completely dry your
hearing aid after use. Store
the hearing aid in a safe,
dry and clean place.
Do not drop your hearing
aid! Dropping onto a hard
surface can damage your
hearing aid.
Always use new batteries
for your hearing aid. In
case a battery is leaking,
replace it immediately with
a new one to avoid any
skin irritation. You can
return used batteries
to your hearing care
professional.
The batteries used in these
hearing aids should not
exceed 1.5 Volts. Please do
not use silver-zinc or Li-ion
(lithium-ion) rechargeable
batteries as these may
cause severe damage to
your hearing aids. The table
in chapter 5 explains
exactly which type of
battery your particular
hearing aids require.
Remove the battery if
you are not using your
hearing aid for a long
period of time.
43
Special medical or dental
examination including
radiation described below,
may adversely affect the
correct functioning of your
hearing aids. Remove and
keep them outside the
examination room/area
before undergoing:
• Medical or dental
examination with X-ray
(also CT scan).
• Medical examinations with
MRI/NMRI scans, generating
magnetic fields.
• Hearing aids don’t need to
be removed when passing
security gates (airports
etc.). If X-ray is used at all,
it will be in very low doses,
and will not affect the
hearing aids.
44
Do not use your hearing
aid in areas where
electronic equipment
is prohibited.
