About Start-up Handling
Warnings
More info
For your personal safety and to ensure correct
usage, you should familiarise yourself fully
with the following general warnings before
using your microphone. Consult your hearing
care professional if you experience unexpected
operations or serious incidents with your
microphone during use or because of its use. Your
hearing care professional will support you with
issue handling and, if relevant, reporting to the
manufacturer and/or the national authorities.
Choking hazards and risk of swallowing
batteries or other small parts
Microphone, their parts and batteries should be
kept out of reach of children and anyone who
might swallow these items or otherwise cause
injury to themselves.
If a battery, hearing aid or small part is
swallowed, see a doctor immediately.
Use on aircraft
The microphone uses Bluetooth. The microphone
should not be used on board an aircraft, unless
specifically permitted by the flight personnel.
Active Implants
The microphone has been thoroughly tested
and characterised for human health according
to international standards for human exposure
(Specific Absorption Ratio - SAR), induced
electromagnetic power and voltages into the
human body. The exposure values are well below
international accepted safety limits for SAR,
induced electromagnetic power and voltages
into the human body defined in the standards
for human health and coexistence with active
medical implants, such as pacemakers and heart
defibrillators.
Rechargeable battery
Do not attempt to open the microphone, as
this may damage the battery. Never attempt to
replace the battery. If batteryreplacement is
needed, please return device to the supplier. The
service guarantee is void if there are signs of
tampering.
The safety of recharging batteries using a USB
connector is determined by the external signal
source. When connected to external equipment
plugged into a wall outlet, this equipment must
comply with IEC62368-1 or equivalent safety
standards.
Heat and chemicals
The microphone must never be exposed to
extreme heat e.g. left inside a parked car in
the sun. The microphone must not be dried in
microwave ovens or other ovens.
The chemicals in cosmetics, hairspray, perfume,
aftershave lotion, suntan lotion and insect
repellent can damage the microphone. Always
remove your microphone before applying such
products and allow time to dry before use.
Use of lanyard
If by accident the lanyard is caught on something
while wearing it, the lanyard is constructed to
break automatically. Therefore, never try to
shorten or modify the lanyard in an unauthorised
way. The lanyard should not be used by children
under 36 months of age.
Interference
The microphone has been thoroughly tested for
interference according to the most stringent
international standards. However, interference
between the microphone and other devices (e.g.
some mobile telephones, citizens band devices,
store alarm systems and other wireless devices)
may occur. If this occurs, increase the distance
between the microphone and the interfering
device.
Connection to external equipment
The safety of the use of the microphone when
connected to external equipment with USB cable
and/or directly, is determined by the external
signal source. When connected to external
equipment plugged into a wall outlet, this
equipment must comply with IEC-62368-1 or
equivalent safety standards.
