Regulatory Information
Some hearing instrument users have reported a buzzing sound in their hearing
instrument when they are using mobile phones, indicating that the mobile phone
and hearing instrument may not be compatible. According to the ANSI C63.19
standard (ANSI C63.19-2007 American National Standard Methods of Measurement
of Compatibility Between Wireless Communications Devices and Hearing Aids), the
compatibility of a particular hearing instrument and mobile phone can be predicted
by adding the rating for the hearing instrument immunity to the rating for the mobile
phone emissions. For example, the sum of a hearing instrument rating of 2 (M2/T2)
and a telephone rating of 3 (M3/T3) would result in a combined rating that equals at
least 5 would provide “normal use”; a combined rating of 6 or greater would indicate
“excellent performance”. See the QuickStart Guide included with your hearing aid for
the exact M/T rating of your hearing instrument.
Important Notice for Prospective
Sound Generator Users
Good health practice requires that a person with tinnitus have a medical evaluation by a
licensed physician (preferably a physician who specializes in diseases of the ear) before
using a sound generator. Licensed physicians who specialize in diseases of the ear are
often referred to as otolaryngologists, otologists or otorhinolaryngologists.
The purpose of a medical evaluation is to assure that all medically treatable conditions
that may affect tinnitus are identified and treated before the sound generator instrument
is used.
TINNITUS TECHNICAL DATA
Multiflex Tinnitus Technology Maximum Output = 87 dB SPL (typical) when measured in
a 2cc coupler per ANSI S3.22 or IEC 60118-7.
WIRELESS TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
Your hearing aids may contain a radio transceiver operating in the 902-928 MHz (North
America) or 863-865 MHz (EU) frequency band with a maximum effective radiated power
of -19 dBm with transmission modulation type of 342KFXD. The receiver section of the
radio has a bandwidth of 300 kHz.
This hearing aid model has been tested to, and has passed, the following emissions and
immunity tests:
• IEC 60601-1-2 radiated emissions requirements for a Group 1 Class B device
as stated in CISPR 11.
• RF radiated immunity at a field level of 10 V/m between 80 MHz and 2.7 GHz
as well as higher field levels from communications devices as stated in Table 9
of IEC 60601-1-2.
• Immunity to power frequency magnetic fields at a field level of 30 A/m.
• Immunity to ESD levels of +/- 8 kV conducted discharge and +/- 15 kV
air discharge.
