Changing batteries
The correct battery size appears in the instrument overview in the first section of this document. Batteries perform differently. Ask your hearing care professional for help choosing a high quality battery for your hearing instrument.
A worn out battery should be removed immediately.
When the battery power is low, you will hear a series of short beeps. This indicates that it is time to change the battery.
To replace the battery, follow these instructions:
• Open the battery door with your fingernail and remove the old battery.
• Remove the sticky label from the + side of the new battery.
• Insert the new battery so that its + marking faces the + sign printed on the battery door.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Open the battery compartment fully to allow air to circulate whenever you are not using your hearing instrument, especially at night!

Turning your instruments ON and OFF
Turn ON your hearing instrument by closing the battery door completely with the battery in place.
When the battery door is closed the instrument will start up by playing a jingle. This indicates that the battery is working and the instrument is operating.
Turn OFF your hearing instrument by opening the battery door with your finger nail.
To preserve the battery, make sure your hearing instrument is switched off when you are not wearing it.
• Close the battery door. If you feel any resistance, you may have inserted the battery incorrectly. Reinsert the battery and try again.
It will take a few seconds before the battery works to full capacity.
To assist the handling of the batteries, the magnet placed at the end of the tool can be used.

Left/Right ear marking
Hearing instruments are fitted to the uniqueness of each ear, which means if you have two instruments then your left hearing instrument is shaped and programmed differently from your right. That is why it is important to distinguish between the left hearing instrument and the right.
In order to easily identify whether it is the left ear or right ear instrument, colour markings may be applied.
Blue text or a blue dot marks the LEFT instrument. Red text or a red dot marks the RIGHT instrument.
Inserting your hearing instruments
Place the tip of the hearing instrument in your ear canal.
Gently pull your ear and push the hearing instrument into the ear canal, twisting slightly if necessary, following the natural contour of the ear canal.
DO NOT use the battery door as a handle to insert or remove your instruments. It is not designed for this purpose.

Programs (Optional)
Your hearing instruments may have a push-button for switching between different programs.
Push briefly on the button to switch to the next program.
A push will go forwards in the program cycle e.g from P1->P2. When the highest numbered program is reached, the cycle starts from program one again.
Your hearing instrument can have up to 4 different programs.
When switching between the different programs, your hearing instrument will beep. The number of beeps will indicate which program you are using.
One beep, when you switch to program 1
