Getting arted
Assembling the power plug
The power plug comes with several country-specic
adapters. Depending on your country you have to
assemble the power plug with an adapter:
XFor US sockets, no adapter is required. Fold out the
plugs (left picture).
XFor all other sockets, an adapter is required
(right picture): Fold the plugs in and slide the adapter
onto the folded plugs. The adapter clicks noticeably in
place.
You can now connect the cable with the power plug.

before r use. Charge it when the battery charge is low
(middle LED is ashing orange).
While ConnexxAir is charging, the charging atus is
indicated by the middle LED:

XInsert both neckloop plugs all
the way.
Further information:
■ If the neckloop is
disconnected for more than
15 minutes, ConnexxAir turns
automatically o.
■ Some of our remote control
units or audio reamers
have similar neckloops. The
neckloop that is intended for ConnexxAir has a blue
ring around the connector. Do not mix up neckloops.

Programming with ConnexxAir
The preferred way of programming with ConnexxAir
is while your client is wearing the hearing inruments.
Refer to section "Wearing ConnexxAir properly" to ensure
that ConnexxAir is worn correctly.
You may also program hearing inruments that are
lying on a table. In this case certain diances mu be
considered. Refer to section "Programming on the table".
During the programming process ConnexxAir
can reach other hearing inruments outside the
neckloop.
XKeep a minimum diance of 1 m (40 inches) to
other hearing inruments.
Wireless diagnoic or measuring devices that are
worn around the neck or shoulders may diurb
ConnexxAir.
XTurn o those devices while using ConnexxAir.
XIf turning o is not possible, keep a minimum
diance of 5 cm (2 inches) between ConnexxAir
(including the neckloop) and those devices.
12
Wearing ConnexxAir properly
In order to function correctly, your client mu wear
ConnexxAir with the neckloop around the neck.
XUnplug one neckloop plug and place the neckloop
loosely around the client's neck ➊.
XEnsure both neckloop plugs are inserted all the
way ➋.

Programming on a table
If you want to pre-congure the hearing inruments you
can also use ConnexxAir
while the hearing inruments
are lying on a table.
When programming on a
table:
XPlace the hearing
inruments along the
neckloop (refer to the
picture).
XKeep a minimum diance
of 3 cm (1.2 inches)
between the two hearing
inruments.
XKeep a diance of 5 to 10 cm (2 to 4 inches) between
each hearing inrument and ConnexxAir.
