Please familiarise yourself with the entire
contents of this booklet before using
your ConnectLine Microphone. It contains
instructions and important information
about the use and handling of your
ConnectLine Microphone.
Not a toy
• The ConnectLine Microphone is not a toy
and therefore should be kept out of the
reach of children and anyone else who
might swallow parts or otherwise cause
injury to themselves. Special attention
should be paid to the smaller compo-
nents in order to prevent children from
swallowing them and choking. If a part is
swallowed, see a doctor immediately.
Use on aircraft
• The ConnectLine Microphone should
not be used onboard an aircraft unless
specifically permitted by the flight
personnel.
Active Implants
• Caution must be taken with active im-
plants. Your ConnectLine Microphone has
a wireless transmission. Please keep the
microphone at least 15 cm away from the
implant, e.g. do not carry it in a breast
pocket. In general, please follow the
guidelines recommended by manufac-
turers of implantable defibrillators and
pacemakers on use with mobile phones.
• If you have an active brain implant,
please contact the manufacturer of your
implantable device for information about
the risk of disturbance.
Do not expose to great heat
• Never expose the ConnectLine Micro-
phone to great heat by putting it in the
oven or microwave oven or by burning it.
There is a risk that it will explode and
cause serious injury.
Cleaning
• Oticon recommends cleaning on a
regular basis, using a damp cloth
without solvents.
• Do not immerse ConnectLine Microphone
in water or other liquids.
Only charge from UL/IEC approved
equipment
• The safety of recharging batteries with
the USB connector only is determined by
the external equipment. When the
USB connector is connected to mains-
operated equipment, this equipment
should be UL approved or comply with
IEC 60950, IEC-60065, IEC-60601 or
equivalent safety standards.
Use of the lanyard
• If by accident the lanyard should get
caught on something while wearing it,
the lanyard is constructed to unlatch.
Therefore, never try to shorten or modify
the lanyard in an unauthorised way. The
lanyard should not be used for children
weighing less than 11 kg.

Explosives
• The power source in your microphone
has insufficient energy to cause fire
under normal conditions of use. The
microphone has not been tested for
compliance with international standards
concerning explosive atmospheres. It is
recommended not to use your micro-
phone in areas where there is a danger
of explosions.
Products complying with R&TTE
• When using the ConnectLine Microphone
in Norway it must be ensured that no
radio transmission is performed within
a 20 km radius from the centre of Ny-
Aalesund.
X-ray, CT, MR, PET scanning and
electrotherapy
• Do not wear the microphone during
X-ray, CT / MR / PET scanning, electro-
therapy or surgery.

Important additional information
The ConnectLine wireless Microphone con-
tains a radio transmitter using a frequency
hopping technology working in the ISM-
band at 2.4 GHz.
The peak conducted output power of the
transmitter is less than 6 dBm and the
antenna is a small PCB antenna with a
directional gain of less than 2 dBi (dB over
an isotropic or omni-directional antenna).
The emission power from the ConnectLine
Microphone is below international emission
limits for Human Exposure. For comparison,
the radiation of the ConnectLine Micro-
phone is less than unintended electromag-
netic radiation from for example hair dry-
ers, electric shavers etc. The ConnectLine
Microphone complies with international
standards concerning Electromagnetic
Compatibility.
