Precautions
To ensure the safety and effectiveness of the Zen pro-
gram when used as a sound therapy tool for tinnitus,
the tinnitus management program must be designed
and conducted by Hearing Healthcare Profession-
als who are trained in tinnitus management. A tinnitus
management program should include a complete audi-
ological evaluation, tinnitus diagnosis, counseling, use
of proper amplification and/or sound therapy tools.
Prior to any tinnitus management program, it is advis-
able that you seek medical attention to exhaust any
medical or surgical treatment options.
Use your hearing aid and the Zen program according
to the directions and schedule recommended by your
hearing healthcare professionals.
Warnings
Use of the Zen program may interfere with hearing eve-
ryday sounds including speech. It should not be used
when hearing such sounds is important. Switch the
hearing aid to a non-Zen program in those situations.
