Safety Information | 25
If you
use
other
medical devices
or
wear implantable medical devices such
a
s
defibrillators
or
pacemakers
and
are concerned
that your
R
e
m
o
t
e
Mic + might
ca
u
s
e
interference
with your
medical
device,
please
contact your
physician
or the
manufacturer
of
your medical device
for
information
about the
risk
of
disturbance.
The
R
e
m
o
t
e
Mic +
should
not be
used
during an
MRI procedure
or in a hyperbaric
chamber.
The
Remote
Mic +
is
not
formally certified
to
operate
in explosive
atmospheres such as may
be found in coal
mines
or
certain chemical
factories.
Use on Aircrafts
The Remote
Mic +
should
not be
used
on
aircrafts unless specifically
permitted by the
flight personnel.
Although the Remote Mic
+ is
not formally certified (IP rated) for protection against dust
or
water ingress, per IEC 60529,
it
has been tested to the IP 5X level. This means that
the
Remote Mic
+ is
protected from
dust.
The battery
in
your Remote
Mic + is not
replaceable.
Do not attempt to
replace
the
battery.
The Remote
Mic +
does
not
contain any user-serviceable parts.
Do not open
or modify it.
Do not
connect
the
Remote Microphone+
to
any devices
not
described
in this
manual. The expected service
life of the
Remote Microphone+
is 3 years.
Wireless Technical
Description
Starkey Hearing Technologies Remote Microphone+ operates
in the 2.4- 2.4835
GHz
band with a
maximum effective radiated
power of
8
dBm with transmission
modulation
type of
1M12FXD
and 1.1
MHz
bandwidth.
The receiver section
of the
radio
has
a bandwidth of 2 MHz.
The Remote Microphone+ has been
tested to, and
has passed,
the following
emissions
and
immunity
tests:
International Use
The Remote
Mic +
is approved
to
operate
at radio
frequencies
that are
specific
to your
country
or region and might not be
approved
for
use outside your country
or region.
Be
aware
that
operation
during
international travel may cause interference
with other
electronic devices,
or other
electronic devices may cause interference
with your
Remote
Mic +.
Your Remote
Mic + is
designed
to operate and be stored within the temperature
range
of
-10˚C (14˚F)
to
45˚C (113˚F)
and
relative
humidity
range
of 10%-95%.
We
are required
by
regulations
to provide the following warnings:
WARNING:
Use
of the
R
e
m
o
t
e
Mic + directly next to other
electronic
equipment
should
be
avoided because
it could
result
in improper
performance.
If
such
use
is
necessary,
note
as
to
whether your hearing aids
and the other equipment are
operating normally.
WARNING:
Use
of
accessories, components
or
replacement parts
other than
those
provided by the
manufacturer
of the
Remote
Mic + could
result
in increased
electromagnetic emissions
and
decreased electromagnetic immunity
and could result
in
degradation
of performance.
WARNING:
If
Portable Radio Frequency communications
equipment is
used
closer
than 30 cm (12
inches)
from your
Remote
Mic +, degradation of the
performance
of your
hearing
aid could
result.
If this
occurs,
move
away
from the
communications
equipment.
