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
slightly until a click is felt.

To preserve the battery, make sure your hearing instrument is
switched off when you are not wearing it.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Open the battery compartment fully to allow air to circulate
whenever you are not using your hearing instrument, especially
at night!

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 programed 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 left ear or right ear instrument,
color markings may be applied inside the battery door.

A blue dot marks the LEFT instrument
A red dot marks the RIGHT instrument



Putting on your instrument

Place the speaker, with the ear piece
attached, into your ear first (1) and then
place the instrument behind your ear (2).

If the power instrument has a Power Mold as
ear piece, make sure it is positioned in the
ear so it perfectly fits the ergonomics of the
ear canal in a tight and comfortable way.

Make sure that the ear piece is placed so
that the tube follows the contour of the skin.

If the battery runs out the instrument turns off.
When that happens, 4 beeps are played to
indicate that the instrument is no longer
operating.
