General Advice - Cochlear Baha Intenso Bedienungsanleitung

English
To maximise battery life, switch off the sound processor when not in use.
Battery life varies depending on volume setting, the sound environment and
the program setting. Battery life will decrease significantly when using the Baha
sound processor with a connected FM receiver if the FM receiver uses the sound
processor as its power source. Using powerful batteries is particularly important
when high current consumption is common. The batteries included with the
sound processor reflect our latest battery recommendation. Battery function can
be related to a number of problems including: no sound, intermittent sound and
crackling/buzzing. Thus, when encountering problems one of the first things one
can do is to try changing the battery.
Note: Always follow local regulations for battery disposal.

General advice

• A sound processor will not restore normal hearing and will not prevent or
improve a hearing impairment resulting from organic conditions.
• Infrequent use of a sound processor does not permit a user to attain full
benefit from it.
• The use of a sound processor is only part of a hearing rehabilitation and may
need to be supplemented by auditory training and instructions in lip-reading.
• For advice on "do's and don'ts" for your Baha sound processor see the section
on Warnings and Precautions (p. 18).
