Intended use
The hearing aids are intended as air conduction amplifi-
cation devices to be used in everyday listening environ-
ments. The hearing aids may be provided with the Zen
program intended to provide a relaxing sound back-
ground (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 minimal (10 dB HL) to mod-
erately severe (76 dB HL) and all hearing loss configu-
rations.
They are to be programmed by licensed hearing care
professionals (audiologists, hearing aid specialists, oto-
laryngologists) who are trained in hearing (re)habilita-
tion.
Description of device
The hearing aid uses a proprietary wireless technology,
WidexLink, to enable communication between the left
and the right hearing aids, as well as between the hear-
ing aids and the DEX accessories.
Your hearing aid may be provided with a listening pro-
gram called Zen. It makes musical tones (and some-
times a rushing noise) in the background. These sounds
are shaped according to your hearing loss.
