Safety, care and use information. Please read before use!
Your hearing aid does not restore
normal hearing, nor does it prevent
or improve an organically induced
hearing loss.
Safety and Warnings
• Your hearing aid must not be worn
by other persons. A risk of hearing da-
mage will ensue.
• Unauthorized modifications to the
hearing aid may damage your hearing.
• Never wear your hearing aid in areas
where there is a risk of explosion.
• Keep the hearing aid out of the reach
of small children, people with cogniti-
ve impairment and pets. The ingestion
of hearing aid parts, in particular of
batteries, is hazardous to life. There
is a danger of suffocation. In case of
emergency call a doctor or a hospital
immediately.
• If you are experiencing pain in or
behind the ear, or if you develop in-
creased earwax, contact your hearing
healthcare professional or doctor.
• For safety reasons, children and per-
sons with cognitive impairments may
only use this device under supervision.
Never leave children and persons with
cognitive impairment unattended
with this hearing aid.
• If the hearing impression changes
with the hearing aid, please consult
your hearing care professional.
• For Junior BC D50 and Junior BC
D70: With children, make sure that
the front of the headband is not pulled
over the neck. If the headband gets
caught somewhere, there is a danger
of suffocation.
• Listening programs in the directional
microphone mode reduce background
noises. Warning signals or noises co-
ming from behind are not perceived or
only weakly perceived.
• Only use certified medical device
accessories for connection to our hea-
ring aids. Your hearing care professi-
onal will provide you with a hearing
program to use an FM system, such
as the Roger X from Phonak. A spe-
cial adapter cable from Bruckhoff is
available for the Junior BC D50 and
BC D70.
• The use of a hearing aid by persons
with an actively implanted medical
device (for example heart pacema-
ker, defibrillator, etc.) requires prior
consultation and clarification with a
specialist physician. (For further infor-
mation please refer to the download
area from our website at www.bruck-
hoff.com)
Information on product safety, use
and maintenance
Your hearing aid is very robust and can
be worn during all normal everyday
activities, even under extreme condi-
tions for short periods.
• Never immerse it in/under water
or use it while showering, bathing or
swimming. The hearing aid electronics
will become damaged.
• Never clean the microphone ope-
nings with moist agents. They will lose
their special acoustic properties.
• Protect your hearing aid from heat.
• Never use a microwave or other hea-
ting appliances to dry it.
• As far as possible, leave unused hea-
ring aids with an open battery com-
partment so that moisture can escape.
• For long-term non-use, remove the
battery.
• Always store the hearing aid in a
safe, dry, and clean place.
• Do not drop it!
• Always replace weak or defective
batteries (e.g. liquid loss) immediately.
Always use new batteries.
• Do not dispose of old batteries in do-
mestic waste. Your hearing care pro-
fessional will dispose of these for you.
• Use only batteries with max.1.5 Volt.
• Never use silver-zinc or lithium-ion
batteries.
• Some (dental) medical examinations
with x-rays, e.g. CT examination, MRT/
NMRT, can impair the functioning of
your hearing aid. Remove your hearing
aid beforehand.
• Hearing aids do not have to be re-
moved before passing through a se-
curity sluice (e.g. at the airport). The
low X-ray radiation emitted there
does not affect your hearing aid.
• Do not use your hearing aid in lo-
cations where electronic devices are
prohibited.
Detailed information can be found on
the internet in the download area
at www.bruckhoff.com. In case of
doubt, please contact your hearing
healthcare professional or a specia-
list physician.
