Practical Solutions to Everyday

Problems

Congratulations on purchasing your new uDirect and

choosing a Unitron Unifi Wireless system. For over 40

years, Unitron has been committed to making life

better for people with hearing loss. This means a

commitment to developing high-quality hearing

solutions that incorporate special features to solve the

everyday problems and concerns you have with

hearing loss and hearing devices.

What is uDirect?

uDirect is the Unifi Wireless System accessory that

provides connectivity between your hearing

instruments and a world of audio devices:

• It can wirelessly receive audio from Bluetooth-

enabled devices such as mobile phones and

personal computers.

• Using Bluetooth adapters, it can wirelessly receive

audio from devices such as your home stereo and

telephone.

• It can also connect many devices-such as portable

MP3 players and radios via a standard audio jack

• It also accepts several FM shoes via the Europlug

input.

uDirect wirelessly streams the received audio signal to

your hearing instruments so that you can use these

devices easily.

You can concurrently connect multiple audio devices

to your uDirect. The audio sources are automatically

prioritized.

Getting started

Charging the battery

Your uDirect has an

internal, rechargeable

battery. To charge it, plug

in the charging cable,

then plug the other end

of the charging cable into

a power outlet.

Your uDirect will turn off automatically when a charger

is connected.

For safety reasons, recharge the battery only with

chargers supplied by Unitron.

During the charging process, the battery light will turn

orange. Once the battery is fully charged, the indicator

will turn green.

Charging an empty battery takes approximately 90

minutes. It is safe to leave the charger connected

overnight – the battery cannot be overcharged.

When char in your uDirect for the first time, allow it

to char e for at least 3 hours, even if the battery

li ht turns reen after 90 minutes.

A new battery’s full performance is achieved only after

two or three complete charge and discharge cycles.

Operating time

Fully charged, your uDirect will operate for

approximately 10 – 12 hours in normal use. Battery

consumption and the operating time of the uDirect

depend greatly on the usage of the device. Heavy use

of the audio streaming and Bluetooth functions will

reduce the operating time of your uDirect between

battery charges.

Your uDirect battery can be charged hundreds of

times. If the operating time of your uDirect reduces

substantially, please contact your hearing healthcare

professional.

Battery status

While turned ON, your uDirect indicates the battery

status on the battery indicator as follows:

• Green, slow flash - Battery charge is high.

• Orange, medium flash - Battery charge is moderate.

• Red, fast flash - Battery charge is low.

Once the fast red flashing starts, your uDirect will still

operate for about an hour, but you should recharge

the battery as soon as possible.

Turning your uDirect ON or OFF

To turn your uDirect ON, press and hold the On/Off

button for about a second until you see the battery

indicator turn on. Release the

On/Off button. Once your uDirect

is fully operational, the battery

indicator will be colored and flash

according to the current battery

charge as described above.

To turn your uDirect OFF, press and hold the On/Off

button for about two seconds until you see the battery

indicator turn green. Once you release the On/Off

button, the battery indicator will go dark and your

uDirect will be OFF.

Wearing your uDirect

To put your uDirect around your neck, open the

neckloop by unplugging it.

Put the neckloop around your neck and plug it in. This

will activate the built-in antenna, and is necessary for

the uDirect to communicate with your hearing

instruments.

Checking the connection to your hearing

instruments

The communication between your uDirect and your

hearing instruments needs to be completed by your

hearing clinician. To check that your uDirect and your

hearing instruments can communicate successfully,

briefly press the communication button. If the

communicate was successful, you will hear a

confirmation beep in your hearing instruments and

the streaming indicator light will turn orange for a few

seconds.

If the communication fails, the streaming indicator will

rapidly flash orange for a few seconds.
