If you need help to identify the serial number (usually six or seven digits)
on the product, please contact your hearing care professional.
Your hearing aid may be provided with a listening program called
Zen. It makes musical tones (and sometimes a rushing noise)
in the background. These sounds are shaped according to your
hearing loss.

WARNING
This hearing aid is capable of producing a sound pressure level exceed-
ing 132 dB SPL. There may be a risk of damaging your residual hearing.
NOTE
In addition to these user instructions, a separate user manual is provid-
ed describing the various ear-set solutions available for your hearing
aid: “Ear-sets for Widex BTE hearing aids”.

9
WARNING
This booklet and the manual “Ear-sets for Widex BTE hearing aids”
contain important information and instructions. Read these booklets
carefully before you start using the hearing aid.
NOTE
Your hearing aid, ear-set and accessories may not look exactly as illus-
trated in this booklet. We also reserve the right to make any changes
considered necessary.

Intended use
The hearing aids are intended as air conduction amplification
devices to be used in everyday listening environments. The hear-
ing aids may be provided with the Zen program intended to pro-
vide a relaxing sound background (i.e. music/noise source) for
adults who desire to listen to such a background in quiet.
Indications for use
The devices are indicated for individuals with a range of hearing
loss severity from moderate (40 dB HL) to severe (100 dB HL) and
all hearing loss configurations.
They are to be programmed by licensed hearing care profession-
als (audiologists, hearing aid specialists, otolaryngologists) who
are trained in hearing (re)habilitation.
