Welcome to the World of Better Hearing

We understand that hearing loss affects one’s quality of life.
That is why we are dedicated to building the highest quality
hearing instruments. Your new hearing instruments will soon
be indispensable to you and will bring new pleasure and
enjoyment to your life.

A period of adjustment may be needed to become
accustomed to your new hearing instruments and the
renewed world of sounds you will experience. The
adjustment time varies for each individual and may be as
little as a couple of weeks to as long as several months.
Allow yourself time to become familiar with those sounds
you have not heard for a long time. Before operating your
hearing instruments, please read this manual thoroughly.

Each hearing instrument has its own unique number located
on the exterior of the hearing aid. The first two digits of the
serial number represent the year in which the instrument
was manufactured.

Battery Information

To turn your hearing instrument “on”, you simply need
to close the battery door after inserting a battery. To
turn your hearing instrument “off”, open the battery door
completely this will disengage the battery and turn off the
hearing instrument. When the hearing aid is not in use, it is
recommended that you open the battery door. This helps
to prevent excessive battery drain and allows for proper
ventilation of the hearing aid.

The low battery detection system continuously monitors
battery life. When the battery becomes low, the low battery
warning sequence consisting of 3 double beeps is initiated.
After the warning beeps are complete, normal operation
resumes. The low battery warning sequence will repeat
again 10 minutes after the initial warning; it’s now time to
insert a new battery. Hearing aid batteries are most easily
purchased from your hearing healthcare provider.

Battery Type and Proper Storage:
Your hearing instrument will use a size 312 battery
(brown tab). A zinc air battery is recommended for
optimal performance. Batteries should NOT be stored in a
refrigerator or dehumidifying device. Such storage could

Use finger notch to open the battery door toward the hinge.
