Putting on the hearing instrument
Turn the instrument on. Place the speaker, with the
ear piece attached, into your ear first and then place
the amplifier behind your ear. If the instrument
comes with a Micro Mould, make sure that the
coloured dot (blue or red) on the mould is facing
towards the amplifier unit (upwards) to ensure a
correct position in the ear canal.
Make sure that the ear piece is placed so that the
tube follows the contour of the skin.
If the instrument has an ear grip, place it in the
concha as indicated in drawing 4.
Alternatively place the amplifier behind your ear. Put
the speaker into your ear canal.

Your Dual hearing device uses either a size or
battery.
Open the battery door completely by pushing the •
raised edge in the bottom of the instrument.
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. Close the
battery door.
Any moisture on the battery surface should be wiped
off before use.
When you change battery, 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.

AutoPhone
Your hearing instrument may have a built-in AutoPhone functionality. When the hearing instrument is
close to a telephone receiver, the AutoPhone will
activate a Phone Program. When the Phone Program
is activated you will hear a number of beeps.
When you end your telephone conversation, the
hearing instrument will automatically return to the
previous program.
Not all telephones can activate the AutoPhone. The
telephone receiver must have a special magnet
fitted. Please follow the separate instructions for
mounting the magnet, which is available from your
Hearing Care Professional.
Warning
If you use an AutoPhone magnet:
• Keep magnets out of reach of children and
pets. If a magnet is swallowed, see a doctor
immediately.
• Do not wear the magnet in a breast pocket
and always keep it cm away from active
implantable devices. Preferably, use the
telephone with magnet on the opposite side
than a pacemaker or other active implantable
devices.
• Keep the magnet cm away from credit cards
and other magnetically sensitive devices.
Caring for your hearing instrument
Your ear canal produces ear wax (cerumen) which
may clog up the earpiece. Therefore your hearing
instrument contains a filter to prevent wax accumulation. Consult your Hearing Care Professional for
instructions about the specific wax protection
system in your hearing instrument and how it can be
replaced.
Cleaning the instrument
A range of dedicated cleaning tools is prepared for the
special purpose of cleaning the instrument. These
should be used to ensure the best care and performance of your hearing instruments.
When handling a hearing instrument, keep it over a
soft surface to avoid damage if you drop it.
Before retiring at night:
Make sure that there is no ear wax in any of the •
earpiece openings since it may reduce the hearing
instrument’s efficiency.
Open the battery door completely to allow air to •
circulate.
Use the cloth to wipe clean the surface of the
instruments.
Replace the brush when necessary. Just pull it out of
the tool and insert a new fresh brush. Press the new
one firmly into the handle.
