Assistive listening devices
Listening in public places
Telecoils pick up electromagnetic energy
and convert it into sound. Your hearing aids
may have a telecoil option that can help
you listen in public places equipped with
telecoil compatible assistive listening devices such
as a loop system.
When you see this symbol, a loop system is present
and may be compatible with your hearing aids.
Please contact your hearing healthcare professional
for more information on loop systems.
How to use your telecoil function
Direct access to the telecoil program is possible via
a press of the push button on your hearing aid.
Connecting to external audio sources
You can connect to external audio sources by using
the uDirect optional wireless accessory. Ask your
hearing healthcare professional for information
about uDirect.

Care and maintenance
Diligent and routine care of your hearing aid contributes to
outstanding performance and a long service life. To ensure
a long service life, Sonova AG provides a minimum of a
five year service period after phase out of the respective
hearing aid. Please use the following specifications as
a guideline. For further information regarding product
safety, see "Important safety information".
General information
Before using hair spray or applying cosmetics, you
should remove your hearing aid from your ear, because
these products may damage it.
Daily
Daily cleaning and the use of a drying system is highly
recommended. Your hearing care professional will be glad
to advise you. Never use household cleaning products
(washing powder, soap, etc.) to clean your hearing aid.
If your hearing aid is performing weakly or fails to operate,
clean or replace the wax guard system. If your hearing aid
fails to operate after you have correctly cleaned or replaced
your wax protection system and inserted new batteries,
contact your hearing care professional for advice.

For more in depth maintenance instructions or for more than
basic cleaning, please see your hearing care professional.
