REXTON ADORE PB, ADORE MB User guide

  • Hello! I'm a chat assistant, and I've read the Rexton Adore MB and Adore PB User Guide. This document describes Behind-The-Ear hearing instruments with features like Bluetooth and iPhone audio streaming. They also have a rocker switch for controls and a telecoil for audio induction loops. I'm ready to answer your questions about the device and its usage!
  • How do I turn the hearing instruments on or off?
    How do I adjust the volume?
    How do I change the hearing program?
    What is the purpose of the telecoil?

Your hearing inruments
This user guide describes optional features that 
your hearing inruments may or may not have.
Ask your Hearing Care Professional to indicate the 
features that are valid for your hearing inruments.
Inrument type
Your hearing inruments are BTE (Behind-The-Ear) 
models. A tube delivers the sound from the hearing 
inrument into the ear. The inruments are not intended 
for children under the age of 3 years or persons with a 
developmental age of under 3 years.
The wireless functionality enables advanced audiological 
features and synchronization between your two hearing 
inruments.
Your hearing inruments feature Bluetooth® low energy*
technology allowing for easy data exchange with your 
smartphone, and for seamless audio reaming with your 
iPhone**.

Getting to know your hearing inruments
It is recommended to familiarize yourself with your new 
hearing inruments. With the inruments in your hand

inrument. This will make it easier for you to feel and 
press the controls while wearing the hearing inruments.
If you have problems pressing the controls of your 
hearing inruments while wearing them, you can 
use a remote control to control your inruments. 
With a dedicated smartphone app you have even 
more control options.

inruments. This means you can get phone calls and 
lien to music from your iPhone directly into your hearing 
inruments.
For more information about compatible iOS devices,
