Operation Manual

• Widex hearing aids are not certified for use
in mines or other areas with explosive gases.
• Switch your hearing aid off when it is not in
use. Should you not use it for a day or more,
take out the battery to avoid battery leak-
age.
• Always insert the battery as described
on p. 6. If you feel the battery needs to be
forced into the battery drawer, check to see
if it is upside down.
Never try to open or repair
the hearing aid yourself
There is only one way
Your hearing aid does not restore normal hearing,
but it will help you to hear and understand what
other people are saying and to enjoy many other
sounds. So don’t give up. The learning process
will take time, but millions of experienced users
can testify that the results are worth the effort.
There are no tricks or short cuts by which you can
obtain immediate and full benefit from your hear-
ing aid. Only consistent and determined practice
will give you the maximum results from your
hearing aid.
It takes time getting used to “hearing” again and
to having “something” in your ear. Your ear may
even become a little sore at first, but that will
pass.
The sooner you become accustomed to wearing
the hearing aid every day and all day long, the
sooner you will succeed.
Take the time and effort. Hearing more out of life
is worth it!
