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.
Hearing aid type
Your hearing aids are a RIC (Receiver-in-Canal) model.
The receiver is placed within the ear canal and connected
to the hearing aid via a receiver cable. The hearing aids
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 Charging Station R.
The wireless functionality enables advanced audiological
features and synchronization between your two hearing
aids.
Your hearing aids feature Bluetooth® Low Energy* technology allowing for easy data exchange with your

Your hearing aids feature Bluetooth® low energy*
technology allowing for easy data exchange with your
smartphone, and for seamless audio reaming with your

Audio Streaming for Hearing Aids (ASHA).
Getting to know your hearing aids
It is recommended to familiarize yourself with your new
hearing aids. With the hearing aids in your hand try
using the controls and note their location on the hearing
aid. This will make it easier for you to feel and press the
controls while wearing the hearing aids.
If you have problems pressing the controls of your
hearing aids while wearing them, you can ask
your Hearing Care Professional whether a remote
control or a smartphone app to control your hearing
aids is available.

Inserting and removing the hearing aids
Your hearing aids have been ne‑tuned for your right and
left ear. Colored markers indicate the
side:
red marker = right ear
blue marker = left ear
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.
See the following illurations.
14
Correct:
Incorrect:
XHold the receiver cable at the bend closer to the
ear piece.
XCarefully push the ear piece in
the ear canal .
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 .
15
CAUTION
Risk of injury!
XAlways wear the receiver cable with an ear
piece.
XMake sure that the ear piece is completely
attached.
CAUTION
Risk of injury!
XInsert the ear piece carefully and not too deeply
into the ear.
CAUTION
Risk of injury!
XIn very rare cases the ear piece could remain
in your ear when removing the hearing aid. If
this happens, have the ear piece removed by a
medical professional.
It may be helpful to insert the right hearing aid
with the right hand and the left hearing aid with
the left hand.
If 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.
16
The optional retention rand helps to securely retain the
ear piece in your ear. To attach the optional retention
rand:
XAlign the end of the retention rand with the at end of
the receiver.
XThen press the retention rand towards the receiver
until it clicks into place.
17
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 aid:
XLift the hearing aid and slide it
over the top of your ear .
XIf your hearing aid is equipped
with a cuom shell or a mold,
remove it by pulling the small
removal cord toward the back
of your head.
XFor all other ear pieces: Grip the receiver in the
ear canal with two ngers and pull it carefully out .
Do not pull the receiver cable.
Clean and dry your hearing aids after usage. Read more
in section “Maintenance and care”.
18
Turning on and off
You have the following options to turn your hearing aids
on or o.
Via charger:
XTurning on: Take the hearing aids 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 connected to the power
supply. For details refer to the charger's user guide.
Via rocker switch:
XTurning on: Press and hold the lower

or lower part of the rocker switch
for several seconds. A power down
melody is played.
19
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:
In 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.
If you want to leave andby mode, but the remote
control is not at hand: Turn your hearing aids o and
on again (via rocker switch or by shortly placing them
in the charger until the LEDs light up). In this case, the
default volume and hearing program are set.
Adjuing the volume
Your hearing aids automatically adju the volume to the
liening situation.
XIf you prefer manual volume adjument, press the
upper part of the rocker switch to increase the volume
or press the lower part to decrease the volume.
Refer to section “Controls” for the setting of your
rocker switch.
An optional signal can indicate the volume change. Once
the maximum or minimum volume has been reached, you
may hear an optional signal tone.
20
Changing the hearing program
Depending on the liening situation, your hearing aids
automatically adju their sound.
Your hearing aids may also have several hearing
programs which allow you to change the sound, if
needed. An optional signal tone can indicate the program
change.
XTo change the hearing program, press the rocker
switch briey.
Refer to section “Controls” for the setting of the rocker
switch. Refer to section “Hearing programs” for a li of
your hearing programs.
The default volume is applied.
