Getting started
On/Off function
1. When the battery door is closed, the hearing instrument will turn on, and the default program will be activated.

SmartStart
Hearing instruments can be turned on once you have placed them on your ears. If you prefer to turn them on just prior to placing them in your ears, your hearing care profes­sional can activate a function called SmartStart. This function will delay the time in which the hearing instruments turn on by several seconds after the batter y compartment is closed. With SmartStar t, a beep will be heard for each second of the delay period.
