Your new RC3-2 remote control
We hope you will be pleased with the remote con-
trol for your Widex hearing aid. We have included
these user’s instructions to explain how your remote
control should be operated. We recommend that
you read the entire booklet to get full satisfaction
from your new RC3-2 remote control.

Your RC3-2 remote control is an accessory for your
hearing aid. You can easily operate your hearing aid
without the remote control; it is just an alternative
way of operating your hearing aid.e advantages of
a Widex RC3-2 remote control are:
• Unlike the buttons on your hearing aid when it
is placed in/on the ear, you can easily see the keys
on the remote control.
• e larger keys on the remote control are easier to
manipulate than the small buttons on the hearing
aid.
• e remote control enables you to operate your
hearing aid discreetly, e.g. from your pocket or
handbag.
• You can adjust the volume and choose programs
for a CIC hearing aid.
• You can operate the right and the left hearing aid
separately.
