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 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 inrument. This
enables easy charging with Charging Station R or the
optional Travel Charger RIC or Charging+ Station R.
The wireless functionality enables advanced audiological
features and synchronization between your two hearing
inruments.
6
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** and for some Android smartphones that support
Audio Streaming for Hearing Aids (ASHA).
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
try using the controls and note their location on the
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
ask your Hearing Care Professional whether a
remote control or a smartphone app to control your
inruments is available.
