Your new Bravissimo élan hearing aid
ank you for choosing a Widex hearing aid. We
have included these user’s instructions to inform
you about the various aspects associated with wear-
ing hearing aids. e instructions are made up of
two parts: e first part is an introduction to life as
a hearing aid user, how to get used to new sounds,
etc. e second part contains facts about your hear-
ing aid. How to operate and maintain it and what
you can do if you experience problems. Both parts
are equally important, so we recommend that you
read the entire booklet to get full satisfaction from
the quality and performance we have built into your
new Bravissimo élan hearing aid.
We hope you will be pleased with your new Widex
hearing aid.

A world of new sounds
Becoming a hearing aid user can be an exciting
challenge. Your hearing aid does not restore normal
hearing, but it brings back sounds that you may not
have heard or thought about for years - everyday
sounds such as a ticking clock, dripping water, the
television, the car, footsteps on hard floors, children’s
voices,music,doors banging,laughter,tools,machin-
ery, etc. All these sounds can be a bit overwhelming.
Try to identify and localise the sounds you are not
accustomed to hearing. Once you become used to
hearing these everyday sounds again, they will be-
come a part of your active world of sounds.

The road to better hearing and a more active
everyday life
Your hearing aids may help you regain the pleasure of
communicating with other people and increase your
quality of life. So, although it may feel like a big chal-
lenge in the beginning, it will be worth the effort.
Help to help yourself
Most modern hearing aids are designed with a mul-
titude of options, settings and features to benefit
most hearing aid users. Your Bravissimo élan hear-
ing aid is set individually to your hearing to ensure
the best and most comfortable sound reproduction.
After a period of use, your hearing aid may have
to be fine tuned by your hearing care professional.
Maybe you have discovered new needs, or maybe
there are situations where the loudness level or
sound reproduction is not satisfactory.e more de-
tails you can provide for your hearing care profes-
sional about your initial experience with the hearing
aids, the easier it is to find the right solution. Before
your next consultation with your hearing care pro-
fessional, it is important that you notice how your
new hearing aids feel.
7
Make a note of the situations where you are not
satisfied and why. Is the problem related to low
frequency, high frequency, weak or loud sounds?
Is it all the time or only in specific situations? Try
to describe your experiences as detailed as possible
so that you and your hearing care professional have
something to go on when you meet again.

The battery
Battery type
e recommended battery type for your Bravissimo
élan is:
Zinc Air battery type 13
For acquisition of batteries, consult your hearing
care professional. Please note the expiry date and
the recommendations regarding disposal of used
batteries on the battery pack. To ensure proper bat-
tery function, do not use batteries past the expiry
date. Because they are Zinc Air type batteries, they
need air to work. erefore, do not remove the ad-
hesive tab until just before inserting the battery in
the hearing aid. Once the tab has been removed, the
battery will start functioning after a few seconds.
e lifetime of the battery depends on a number of
factors, such as the setting of your hearing aid, how
many hours you use it daily and the listening envi-
ronments in which you use it.
