Intended use
Hearing aids are intended to improve the hearing of hearing
impaired persons. Diagnosis and prescription of a hearing
aid must be performed by hearing health specialists, e.g.
acousticians, audiologists or ENT doctors.
The charger is intended to charge Miracle-Ear®specific hearing
aids with built-in power cells (lithium-ion rechargeable batteries).
Use the hearing aids and accessories only as described in the
respective user guides.
Your hearing aids
This user guide describes optional features that your
hearing aids may or may not have.
Ask your Hearing Care Specialist to specify the features that
are valid for your hearing aids.
Hearing aid type
Your hearing aids are a RIC (Receiver-in-Canal) model. The
receiver is placed within the ear canal and connected to
the hearing aid via a receiver cable. The instruments are not
intended for children under the age of 3 years or persons with a
developmental age of under 3 years.
A power cell (lithium-ion rechargeable battery) is permanently
built into your hearing aid. This enables easy charging with our
charger.
