Important information for hearing care professionals
about TinnitusSoundSupport
Device description
TinnitusSoundSupport is a module function that can be enabled in the
hearing aids by the hearing care professional.
Maximum wearing time
The wearing time of TinnitusSoundSupport will decrease as you increase
the level above 80dB(A)SPL. The tting software will automatically display
a warning when the hearing aid exceeds 80dB(A)SPL. See “Max wearing
time indicator” next to the tinnitus tting graph in the tting software.
The volume control is deactivated
By default the volume control for the sound generator is deactivated in the
hearing aid. Risk of noise exposure increases when the volume control is
activated.
If the volume control is activated
A warning may be displayed if you activate the tinnitus volume control in
the “Buttons and Indicators” screen. This occurs if the relief sound can be
listened to at levels that may cause hearing damage. The “Max wearing
time” table in the tting software displays the number of hours the patient
can safely use TinnitusSoundSupport.
• Note the max wearing time for each program for which
TinnitusSoundSupport is activated.
• Write those values in the table: “TinnitusSoundSupport: Limitation
on use”, in the back of this booklet.
• Instruct your patient accordingly.
