Changing batteries

The correct battery size appears in the “Instrument View”

in the first section of this document.

A worn out battery should be removed immediately

and disposed of according to local regulations.

When the battery power is low, you will hear 2 beeps.

This pre-warning starts when the battery has only a

few hours of operation left. The pre-warning will be

repeated in moderate intervals to indicate it is time

to change the battery.

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.

This is not an indication of a malfunction.

To replace the battery, follow these instructions:

Open the battery door completely by pushing the raised edge on the bottom of•

the instrument. To assist with the handling of the batteries, the magnet placed

at the end of the MultiTool can be used.

The new battery may be inserted by using the magnetic end of the MultiTool.•

Ensure that the positive (+) marking faces the positive (+) sign printed on the

battery door. Close the battery door.

If any moisture on the battery surface, it should be

wiped off before use. When you change the battery,

it will take a few seconds before the battery works

to full capacity. MultiTool

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 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 inside the battery door.

A blue dot marks the LEFT instrument.

A red dot marks the RIGHT instrument.

Putting on your instrument with earmould

Place the tip of the earmould in your ear canal, twisting

slightly, making sure that the top part of the earmould (A)

is pushed behind and under the fold (B) of your ear.

Gently pull up your ear and press the earmould in the

direction of the ear canal.

With the earmould positioned correctly in your ear,

place the hearing instrument behind your ear by lifting

its lower part and sliding it over the top of your ear.
