Changing batteries
The correct battery size appears in the instrument overview 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.
To replace the battery, follow these instructions:
Open the battery door with your fingernail and remove•
the old battery. The old battery may be removed by
using the magnetic end of your MultiTool.
Use the magnet at the end of the tool to assist in handling the 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. 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.
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.

Volume Control (Optional for ITE only)
Your ITE instrument may have a volume control wheel. The volume control wheel can be
turned with the tip of a finger and can be rotated infinitely both ways.
The volume control allows you to adjust the volume in specific listening situations to the
level you feel comfortable with.
To increase volume, turn the wheel forward.
To decrease volume, turn the wheel toward
the back of your head.
You will hear a beep when you increase or
decrease the volume.
When the hearing instrument is turned on, it starts up at a preferred volume level. When
adjusting the volume control to the preferred level, this is indicated by 2 short beeps.
Telecoil (Optional)
The telecoil is an inductive receiver for audio signals. The telecoil is meant for telephone
conversations and for loop systems in e.g. theaters, churches or lecture rooms.
The telecoil is activated by the push-button. When activated, you will hear a certain
number of beeps corresponding to the telecoil program.
See Programs for the telecoil program setting.
