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

14
"
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.
"
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.
15
"
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.
" What happens if I forgot 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.
16
"
What if I intend not to use the hearing inruments
for several days or longer?
● Short-term orage (up to several days): Turn o your 
hearing inruments via the push button or place them in 
the powered charger.
The charger mu be connected to the power supply. 
If the charger is not connected to power supply and
you place your hearing inruments in the charger, the 
hearing inruments are not turned o.
Note that when you turn o the hearing inruments 
via a remote control or smartphone app, the hearing
inruments are not turned o completely. They are in 
andby-mode and ill draw some power.
17
● Long-term orage (weeks, months, ...): Fir, fully 
charge your hearing inruments. Turn them o via the 
push button before oring them. We recommend to use 
drying products while oring the hearing inruments.
At 6 month intervals you will have to charge the hearing 
inruments to avoid an unrecoverable deep-discharge 
of the power cell. Deep‑discharged power cells cannot
be charged anymore and they have to be replaced. We 
recommend recharging more frequently than 6 months 
intervals.
Observe the orage conditions in hearing inruments' 
user guide.
Ask your Hearing Care Professional for recommended
drying products.

"
What should I pay attention to when charging?
The hearing inruments and charger mu be clean 
and dry. Observe the operation conditions in section
"Operating, transport, and orage conditions". Avoid 
charging at high ambient temperatures, as this can shorten
the life span and capacity of the power cell.
If you use the charger in a very warm environment, note that
it will op charging in order to cool down if the charger's 
temperature exceeds 45 °C. The LED light will blink 3 
times in 2 seconds when this happens. Charging resumes
automatically after the device has cooled down. Do not
touch the hearing inruments, they may be hot. 
19
"
What should I pay attention to when using a power
rip with energy-saving features?
● Turn on the power rip before you insert the hearing
inruments in the charger. Otherwise, the hearing 
inruments may not be detected by the charger.
● Do not turn o the power rip while the hearing
inruments are in charger. Otherwise the hearing 
inruments will automatically turn on and discharge in 
the charger.
Before you turn o the power rip, remove the hearing 
inruments from the charger and turn them o via the
