Activating The Hearing Aid For The First Time - oticon sensei BTE312 Instructions For Use Manual

Warnings
Possible side effects
Hearing aids and earpieces may cause an accelerated accumulation of earwax.
The otherwise non-allergenic materials used in hearing aids may in rare cases lead to a skin
irritation or other side effects.
Please seek consultation with a physician if these conditions occur.
Interference
The hearing aid has been thoroughly tested for interference, in accordance with the most
stringent international standards. However, interference between the hearing aid and other
devices (e.g. some mobile telephones, citizens band systems, and shop alarm systems, and other
devices) may occur. If this occurs, increase the distance between the hearing aid and
the interfering device.
Connection to external equipment
The safety of the hearing aid when connected to external equipment (via auxiliary input cable,
via USB cable, or directly), is determined by the external equipment. When connected to external
equipment plugged into a wall outlet, this equipment must comply with IEC60065, IEC-60950 or
equivalent safety standards.

Activating the hearing aid for the first time

A hearing aid is a miniature electronic device that runs on special batteries.
To activate the hearing aid, you must insert a fresh battery in the battery compartment.
The hearing aid will start up when the battery door is closed. It will take a few seconds
until sound is produced. A jingle is played while the start up process is running.
You may put on the hearing aid immediately upon closing the battery door.
Your hearing aid may have SmartFit™ Trainer, a visual guidance tool for inserting the ear
mould. If SmartFit™ Trainer is activated, you will hear a series of tones that may last for
up to 20 seconds during the start up process.
If the hearing aid is held in the hand while activated, it may produce a whistling sound.
This will stop when properly fitted on the ear.
