Your hearing aid does not restore
normal hearing, nor does it prevent
or improve an organically induced hea-
ring loss.
Safety and Warnings
• Your hearing aid must not be worn by
other persons. A risk of hearing dama-
ge will ensue.
• Unauthorized modifications to the
hearing aid may damage your hearing.
• Never wear your hearing aid in are-
as where there is a risk of explosion.
• Keep the hearing aid out of the reach
of small children, people with cognitive
impairment and pets. The ingestion of
hearing aid parts, in particular of batte-
ries, is hazardous to life. There is a dan-
ger of suffocation. In case of emergency
call a doctor or a hospital immediately.
• If you are experiencing pain in or be-
hind the ear, or if you develop increased
earwax, contact your hearing healthcare
professional or doctor.
• Hearing aids should not be fitted with
a dome or cerumen (earwax) protection
system for customers with perforated
eardrums, inflamed ear canals or other-
wise exposed mid-ear cavities. In the-
se cases, we recommend the use of a
custom ear mould. In the rather unlikely
event that the dome remains in the au-
ditory canal, we recommend a visit to a
specialist medical practitioner.
• 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.
• Never connect your hearing aid to an
external audio device such as a radio,
etc., as this may result in physical injury
(electric shock).
• The use of a hearing aid by persons
with an actively implanted medical de-
vice (for example heart pacemaker, defi-
brillator, etc.) requires prior consultation
and clarification with a specialist phy-
sician. (For further information please
refer to our website at www.bruckhoff.

Information on product safety, use
and maintenance
Your hearing aid is very robust and can
be worn during all normal everyday ac-
tivities, even under extreme conditions
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 openings
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.
• The dome must be replaced every
three months, or as soon as it becomes
hard or brittle. This prevents uninten-
tional detachment of the dome during
insertion and removal from the ear.
• 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 bat-
teries (e.g. liquid loss) immediately. Al-
ways 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 remo-
ved before passing through a security
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.
