Congratulations !
As the owner of a new hearing system, you may once again
enjoy the sounds of your environment, and conversation
with your family and friends.
These instructions as well as guidance from your hearing
instrument specialist will help you understand how your new
hearing system works. In this guide, you’ll find instructions
about inserting, removing and use of your ACURISTM hearing
system. There are also tips and information on proper hand-
ling, cleaning, care and changing of the batteries. In addi-
tion, a troubleshooting section is offered for your reference.
Your hearing improvement with a hearing system depends
on the fit of the hearing instruments, the type and degree
of hearing loss, and proper diagnostic testing. Of course, a
hearing system cannot restore normal hearing, and not
everyone will benefit equally.
More than 80 percent of individuals with hearing loss have
hearing loss in both ears. Studies show that even when a
hearing loss is worse in one ear, most people with hearing
loss in both ears will benefit from wearing two instruments.
Remember, a hearing system consists of finely-tuned devices
that have been specially designed and expertly adjusted for
your individual needs. Proper care and handling will ensure
the best possible performance of your ACURIS hearing
system.
