The intended use of a
CROS device is to transmit
sound to a hearing aid on
the better hearing ear and
hereby compensate for
impaired hearing. The
CROS system (specially
programmed for each
hearing loss) must only
be used by the intended
person. They should not
be used by any other
person as they could
damage hearing.
Changes or modifi cations
to the CROS device that
were not explicitly approved
by Phonak are not permitted.
Such changes may damage
your ear or the CROS device.
Do not use the CROS
device in explosive areas
(mines or industrial areas
with danger of explosions,
oxygen rich environments
or areas where fl ammable
anesthetics are handled).
Hearing aid batteries are
toxic if they are swallowed!
Keep out of reach of children
under 3 years. If batteries
are swallowed, consult your
physician immediately!
If you feel pain in or behind
your ear, if it is infl amed or if
skin irritation and accelerated
accumulations of earwax
occur, please check with
your hearing care
professional or physician.
15.1 Hazard warnings
32
Please read the information on the following pages before
using your CROS device.
A CROS device will not restore normal hearing and will not
prevent or improve a hearing impairment resulting from
organic conditions. Infrequent use of a CROS device does
not permit a user to attain full benefi t from it. The use of
a CROS device is only part of hearing habilitation and may
need to be supplemented by auditory training and
instruction in lipreading.
