with medical equipment (X-ray, high-frequency, MRI or shortwave
therapy).
• Do not use the hearing aids in areas exposed to the danger of
explosion or an oxygen-rich atmosphere!
• Stay away from strong electromagnetic fields.
• Persons with pacemakers or magnetic valves should keep their
hearing aids at least 15 cm away; if interference is detected, refer to
the implant manufacturer's safety instructions. Metal detectors or
alarms may cause interference or create unexpected sounds.
• The hearing aids can generate major output levels to 132 dB
A hearing health professional should take special care when adapting
this hearing aid, as there may be a risk of damaging the user's residual
hearing.

Intended Purpose

The intended purpose of the hearing aids is to selectively amplify
sound and transmit it to the ear to compensate for the hearing of
hearing impaired people.
• The hearing aids are intended to compensate for mild to profound
(transmissive, mixed or neurosensory) hearing loss. Its use is not
intended for children nor people with mental disabilities.
 WARNING!
The prescription and adaptation of the hearing aids must be performed
by a hearing health professional, who will perform the programming
and specific adjustment for hearing loss and the morphology of the
user in a completely personalized manner. Therefore, using hearing
aids not prescribed by a professional or adapted for another person
can damage your hearing.
 Any modification of the product must be carried out by a Technical
Service authorised by the manufacturer.

Operation Principles

The RIC (Receiver in Canal) device is a type of hearing aid that can
be partially adapted to the EEC (External Ear Canal). It is similar to a
behind-the-ear hearing aid, but in this case the receiver goes inside
the EEC, fitted via a dome or a custom earmold.
Domes/Moulds and receiver tube: responsible for conducting
sound and allowing the device to be adapted to the ear using a dome
or earmold.
Microphone: gathers sound and converts it into an electric signal.
Amplifier: digital processor, which collects the signal and adapts it
to the parameters entered for each loss.
Receiver: converts the electrical signal into sound and transmits it,
already amplified, to the user's ear.
