Intended purpose

Tinnitus instruments from audifon are used in the framework

of tinnitus therapy. They use artiﬁcially generated background

noise to distract suerers from their tinnitus and help with the

long-term goal of accustoming them to it.

Tinnitus instruments need to be ﬁtted individually by a hearing

care professional or an ENT doctor.

Diagnostics and the prescription of tinnitus instruments is the

task of an ENT doctor.

Updated: 21.12.2020

instrument. You now have at your disposal an instrument

or hyperacusis (excessive sensitivity to sound). It assists with

correcting disorders of the audiological system and masking

tinnitus and/or improving existing hyperacusis.

Please read through the following operating and care

instructions carefully to avoid malfunctions and faults.

The exact designation of your tinnitus instrument is shown on

 YOUR TINNITUS INSTRUMENT

2.1 Type

Your tinnitus instruments may be behind-the-ear devices with

or without an external receiver or in-the-ear devices. Please see

the relevant sections for their operation.

2.2 Technical features

Detailed acoustic data for your tinnitus instruments can

be found in a separate data speciﬁcation. This and further

information are available from your hearing care professional or

www.audifon.com.

2.3.1 Information on battery

A zinc air battery is used to supply the power for your tinnitus

instruments. This type of battery is only activated when oxygen

comes through the air holes into the button cell and a chemical

reaction is initiated. During production, the air holes are sealed

with a protective strip.

This ensures the battery remains fresh until use and lasts longer

when it is sealed. Removing the protective strip allows oxygen

to enter and the chemical reaction is initiated.

2.3 Batteries

To start your tinnitus instruments ﬁrst insert a battery in the

battery compartment.

Make sure you only use zinc air batteries. Please follow the

instructions on the battery packaging. For the exact type of

battery in your tinnitus instrument please see the overview

table.

Always switch your tinnitus instruments o after use. Remove

the battery if your instruments are out of use for long periods, to

avoid damage.

Battery

2.3.2 Low battery warning

An audible signal indicates the end of the battery life in good

time (approx. 30 minutes before the end of the battery’s life).

Important warnings

Reﬁtting the strip when the battery is not in use

will not extend its service life.

Your batteries should be stored at room temperature.

Avoid keeping them in hot places or rooms with high

humidity (e.g. bathroom). Storage in a cooled location is not

necessary.

Never carry batteries loose in a trouser pocket or a purse.

Metal objects like coins or keys could cause batteries to

short-circuit.

Old batteries may contain hazardous substances or

heavy metals that can pollute the environment and harm

health. Batteries are recycled as they contain valuable

raw materials such as iron, zinc, manganese or nickel. Old

batteries should not be discarded with household waste.

Consumers are obliged to dispose of batteries at a collection

point provided by the local authority or a sales outlet. After

use you can also return the batteries in the appropriate

containers at the premises of your hearing care professional

free of charge.
