Low battery warning
An acoustic signal gives you an early warning that the battery is approaching exhaustion. You have usually at least 30 minutes to replace the battery. With very high quality batteries, this reserve may be higher. The hearing system will repeat the low battery warning approximately every 30 minutes.
Handle the battery compartment with care and do not use excessive force. If there is any resistance when shutting the compartment, ensure that the battery is inserted correctly. If the battery is installed backwards, the instrument will not work. Please open the battery compartment and insert the battery correctly. For the Junior models, the battery latch must be placed back over the battery and locked, before closing the battery compartment. The battery compartment must be completely closed to ensure that the hearing instrument is water resistant. When your hearing system is not in use, leave the battery compartment open to allow any moisture to evaporate. We recommend to only use batteries which your hearing care professional approves and sells.

Operation
EasyPhone
The EasyPhone function enables your Naída hearing system to automatically select your telephone program when the telephone handset is held close to your ear. An acoustic signal confirms the switching. It automatically returns to the previous hearing program when the telephone handset is removed from your ear.
Some telephones produce a magnetic field strong enough to activate your EasyPhone function. Most types of telephones require an additional magnet fixed on the receiver to activate this function.
Fixing the EasyPhone magnet
Clean the telephone handset thoroughly. Hold the telephone handset nearly vertically, similarly to making a telephone call. Hold the magnet near to the “listening end” of your telephone handset and release it. The magnet will automatically flip to the correct side.
If you hold the telephone receiver in your right hand when making telephone calls, position the magnet in the upper right half of the receiver. If you hold the telephone receiver in your left hand when making telephone calls, position the magnet in the upper left half of the receiver.
Use the double-sided adhesive tape to stick the magnet to the location described above. Do not cover the sound openings of your handset.

Use of EasyPhone
Use the telephone in a normal manner. An acoustic signal indicates the activation of the EasyPhone program. At the beginning, you may need to move the handset slightly to find the optimum position for a reliable switching and comfortable hearing.
If necessary, move the magnet to another position on the handset to increase your comfort of use.
Keep magnets out of reach of children and pets. If a magnet is swallowed, please seek the advice of a medical practitioner. The magnet used to strengthen the magnetic field of your phone may affect some medical devices or electronic systems. Always keep the magnet (or the telephone equipped with the magnet) at least 30 cm (12”) away from pacemakers, credit cards, floppy disks or other magnetically sensitive devices. Too high distortion during dialing or phoning may mean that the phone receiver is stressed by the magnet. To avoid any damage, please move the magnet to another place on the telephone receiver.

Maintenance
Wind and Weather Protector
Important: The three Wind and Weather Protectors are
exclusive to Phonak hearing systems, designed to protect the high-tech microphones and the battery air inlet from dust, humidity or water.
The life span of the Wind and Weather Protector should be up to several months, depending on the environment (humidity, dust, perspiration, etc.). The Wind and Weather Protectors should not be cleaned but replaced regularly.
Your hearing systems should never be used without the Wind and Weather Protectors. If they are not mounted properly, the hearing system is not water resistant (see page 50).
The following care and maintenance tips will help extend the life span and ensure the efficiency of your protectors:
Never wipe or clean the Wind and Weather Protector – it may lose its special acoustic and protection properties. The Wind and Weather Protector is made of three identical parts. Always replace all three protectors together. Hair spray, make-up, etc. may damage or clog the Wind and Weather Protector. Remove your hearing system before applying cosmetics. Avoid touching the Wind and Weather Protector when you place an instrument on your ear or press the program switch.
