greater quality of life your hearing aids oer.
To receive the mo benet from your hearing aids, it is
recommended that you wear them every day, all day. This

Before using your hearing aids for the r time, fully
charge them.
The device may not look exactly like the guiding
illurations in these inructions. We reserve the right
to make any changes we consider necessary.
Intended use
Hearing aids are intended to improve the hearing of hearing
impaired persons. Diagnosis and prescription of a hearing
aid mu be performed by hearing health specialis, e.g.
acouicians, audiologis or ENT doctors.
Use the hearing aids and accessories only as described in
the respective user guides.

Your hearing aids
This user guide describes optional features that your
hearing aids may or may not have.
Ask your Hearing Care Professional to indicate the
features that are valid for your hearing aids.
Inrument type
Your hearing aids are a RIC (Receiver-in-Canal) model.
The receiver is placed within the ear canal and connected to
the inrument via a receiver cable. The inruments are not
intended for children under the age of 3 years or persons
with a developmental age of under 3 years.
A power cell (lithium-ion rechargeable battery) is
permanently built into your hearing aid. This enables easy
charging with ampli-charge R-D 1 Portable or Connexx
Charging+ Station SR.
The wireless functionality enables advanced audiological
features and synchronization between your two hearing
aids.
8
Your hearing aids feature Bluetooth® low energy* technology
allowing for easy data exchange with your smartphone, and
for seamless audio reaming with your iPhone** and for
some Android smartphones that support Audio Streaming
for Hearing Aids (ASHA).
Getting to know your hearing aids
Your hearing aids have no controls.
If you want to adju the volume or switch hearing programs
manually, you can ask your Hearing Care Professional
about a remote control option.

 Daily use
 Charging
You have the choice between ampli-charge R-D 1 Portable ➊
and Connexx Charging+ Station SR ➋.
XPlace the hearing aids in the charger.
XFollow the inructions in the charger's user guide. You
can also nd useful tips for charging in the charger's user
guide.
13
Turning on and o hearing aids
You have the following options to turn your hearing aids
on or o.
XTurning on: Take the inruments out of the charger.
The artup melody is played in your hearing aids. The
default volume and hearing program are set.
XTurning o: Place the hearing aids in the charger.
Note that the charger mu be on.
Switching to andby mode
Via remote control, you can switch your hearing aids to
andby mode. This mutes the hearing aids. When you
leave andby mode, the previously used volume and
hearing program are set.
Note:
zIn andby mode, the hearing aids are not turned o
completely. They draw some power.
Therefore we recommend to use andby mode only for a
short period of time.
14
zIf you want to leave andby mode, but the remote control
is not at hand: Turn your hearing aids o and on again
(by shortly placing them in the charger until one or more
LEDs light up). Wait until the artup melody is played in
your hearing aids. This may take several seconds. Note
that the default volume and hearing program are set.
Inserting and removing the hearing aids
Your hearing aids have been ne-tuned for your right and left
ear. Colored markers indicate the side:
zred marker = right ear
zblue marker = left ear
15
Inserting a hearing aid:
XFor Sleeves, take care that the bend of the Sleeve is in
line with the bend of the receiver cable.
Correct:
Incorrect:
16
XHold the receiver cable at the bend closer to the
ear piece.
XCarefully push the ear piece in the
ear canal ➊.
XTwi it slightly until it sits well.
Open and close your mouth to
avoid accumulation of air in the
ear canal.
XLift the hearing aid and slide it over
the top of your ear ➋.
zIt may be helpful to insert the right hearing aid
with the right hand and the left hearing aid with
the left hand.
zIf you have problems inserting the ear piece,
use the other hand to gently pull your earlobe
downwards. This opens the ear canal and eases
insertion of the ear piece.
17

ear piece in your ear. To position the retention rand:

it carefully into the bottom of the bowl

section "Maintenance and care".

Adjuing the volume
Your hearing aids automatically adju the volume to the
liening situation.

control option.

automatically adju their sound.

hearing programs.

to be aligned. Turn the receiver slightly so
that the ear is not completely covered.

your Hearing Care Professional to congure a telephone
program.

the phone.

aids, it is lied in section "Hearing programs".
