Charging tips
You may have some queions on how to be charge your 
hearing inruments. Read the queions and answers 
below. If you have more queions, your Hearing Care 
Professional will help you.
"
How often do I need to charge the hearing
inruments?
We recommend charging the hearing inruments 
daily, even if the power cell is not empty. Charge
them overnight so you can be sure to art your day 
with fully-charged hearing inruments.
Dry_Clean_Charger_BTE_RIC_SLIMRIC_[EN]_2.indd 18Dry_Clean_Charger_BTE_RIC_SLIMRIC_[EN]_2.indd 18 25-08-2021 08:41:3225-08-2021 08:41:32
19
"How long does charging take?
A full charging cycle takes approximately
3 to 4 hours.
After 30 minutes, it is possible to use your hearing 
inruments for up to 7 hours.
Charging times may vary due to the use of the
hearing inruments and the age of the power cell.
"
Can I leave the hearing inruments in the
charger?
Even when fully charged, you can leave the hearing
inruments in the charger. They automatically op 
charging when they are fully charged.
Dry_Clean_Charger_BTE_RIC_SLIMRIC_[EN]_2.indd 19Dry_Clean_Charger_BTE_RIC_SLIMRIC_[EN]_2.indd 19 25-08-2021 08:41:3225-08-2021 08:41:32
20
"What happens if I forget to charge?
Your hearing inruments will automatically switch-o 
when the power cell is empty. Charge the hearing
inruments as soon as possible.
Hearing inruments which have not been charged 
for over 6 months may be damaged due to an 
unrecoverable deep-discharge of the power cell.
Deep-discharged power cells cannot be charged
anymore and have to be replaced.
