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.

A power cell (lithium-ion rechargeable battery) is permanently

built into your hearing inrument. This enables easy charging

with our inductive charger.

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

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.

Switching to andby mode

Via remote control or smartphone app, you can switch

your hearing inruments to andby mode. This mutes

the hearing inruments. When you leave andby mode,

the previously used volume and hearing program are set.

Note:

zIn andby mode, the hearing inruments are not turned

o completely. They draw some power.

Therefore we recommend to use andby mode only for

a short period of time.

zIf you want to leave andby mode, but the remote control

or app is not at hand: Turn your hearing inruments o

and on again (via push button or by shortly placing them

in the charger until one or more orange LEDs light up). In

this case, the default volume and hearing program are set.

Inserting and removing the hearing inruments

Your hearing inruments have been ne-tuned for

your right and left ear. Colored markers indicate

the side:

zred marker = right ear

zblue marker = left ear

Inserting a hearing inrument:

XHold the tube close to the ear piece.

XCarefully push the ear piece

into 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 inrument

and slide it over the top of

your ear ➋.

CAUTION

Risk of injury!

XInsert the ear piece carefully and not too deeply

into the ear.

zIt may be helpful to insert the right hearing

inrument with the right hand and the left hearing

inrument 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.

The optional retention rand helps to securely retain the

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

XBend the retention rand and position

it carefully into the bottom of the bowl

of your ear (refer to the picture).

Removing a hearing inrument:

XLift the hearing inrument

and slide it over the top of

your ear ➊.

XHold the tube close to the

ear piece and pull the ear piece

out carefully ➋.

CAUTION

Risk of injury!

XIn very rare cases the ear piece could remain in

your ear when removing the hearing inrument.

If this happens, have the ear piece removed by

a medical professional.

Clean and dry your hearing inruments after usage.

Read more in section "Maintenance and care".

Adjuing the volume

Your hearing inruments automatically adju the volume

to the liening situation.

XIf you prefer manual volume adjument, press the

push button.

Refer to section "Controls" for the setting of your

push button.

An optional signal can indicate the volume change.
