Method for operating a hearing aid apparatus and hearing aid apparatus

摘要

A method is provided for operating a hearing aid apparatus including two hearing aids being signal-coupled by a wireless first communication link with a comparatively short range and by a wireless second communication link with a comparatively long range. Each hearing aid has an integrated motion sensor for capturing a fall of the respective hearing aid. A first signal level of the first communication link is monitored and compared to a stored first threshold in each hearing aid. A notification signal is transmitted from the first hearing aid over the second communication link when the motion sensor captures a fall and the first signal level reaches or drops below the first threshold. Upon reception of the notification signal, a perceivable first information signal is produced by the second hearing aid as a protection against loss. A hearing aid apparatus is also provided for carrying out the method.
