Before using your hearing aid for the first time, it is recommended to charge it for 3 hours. The hearing aid must be dry before charging.

1. Insert the hearing aid into the charging inserts in the charger case. Make sure the left and right hearing aid markings (blue for left, red for right) match the indicators next to the charging inserts.

2. The indicator light on the hearing aid will show the charging state of the battery. The charging process stops automatically when the batteries are fully charged.

3. When fully charged, the indicator light will be a solid green light.

4. To remove the hearing aids, gently pull them toward yourself and then lift them out of the charger. Do not hold the tubes to remove them, as this can cause damage. The hearing aids will switch on automatically when removed from the charger.

The indicator light on the hearing aid shows the charging status while it is in the charger. The charging process can take up to 3 hours.

The optional Power Pack is only compatible with the Charger Case Combi.

1. Attach the Power Pack to the bottom of the Charger Case Combi and lock it.

2. To charge the Power Pack and the hearing aids simultaneously, plug the micro-USB cable into the Power Pack and connect it to an external power supply. It is recommended to charge the Power Pack for 3 hours before its first use.

3. To check the remaining battery capacity of the Power Pack, press the battery check push button. The indicator lights will show the status:

• One light: 0%-29%

•• Two lights: 30%-59%

••• Three lights: 60%-100%

Switch on:

Your hearing aid is configured to switch on automatically when removed from the charger. If this function is not configured, firmly press and hold the lower part of the multi-function button for 3 seconds until the indicator light blinks green. A solid green light indicates the hearing aid is ready.

Switch off:

Press and hold the lower part of the button for 3 seconds until the solid red light appears, which indicates the hearing is off.

Putting on the hearing aid:

1. Place the hearing aid behind your ear.

2. Insert the earpiece into your ear canal.

3. If there is an anchor attached to the earpiece, tuck it into the bowl of your ear to secure your hearing aid.

Removing the hearing aid:

1. Pull on the bend of the tube and remove the hearing aid from behind the ear.

You only need to perform the pairing procedure once with each device. After the initial pairing, your hearing aids will connect automatically.

1. On your device (e.g., a phone), ensure that Bluetooth is enabled and search for Bluetooth enabled devices in the connectivity settings menu.

2. Switch on both hearing aids. You now have 3 minutes to pair them with your device.

3. Your device will show a list of Bluetooth enabled devices. Select the hearing aid from the list to simultaneously pair both hearing aids. A beep will confirm a successful pairing.

When paired with a Bluetooth enabled phone, you will hear the caller’s voice directly in your hearing aids, and your voice is picked up by the hearing aid’s own microphones.

Making a call: Enter the phone number on your phone and press the dial button. You will hear the dialing tone through your hearing aids.

Accepting a call: When you receive a call, you will hear a notification. Accept the call with a short press (less than 2 seconds) on the upper or lower part of the multi-function button on the hearing aid, or directly on your phone.

Ending a call: End the call with a long press (more than 2 seconds) on the upper or lower part of the multi-function button, or directly on your phone.

Rejecting a call: Reject an incoming call with a long press (more than 2 seconds) on the upper or lower part of the multi-function button, or directly on your phone.

Entering flight mode disables the Bluetooth connectivity functions but does not disable normal hearing aid functionality.

Enter flight mode:

1. If the hearing aid is on, turn it off by pressing and holding the lower part of the button for 3 seconds until the indicator light turns solid red.

2. Press and hold the lower part of the button. The green indicator light will blink as the hearing aid starts up.

3. Keep pressing the button for a total of 7 seconds, until the indicator light is solid orange, then release the button. The solid orange light indicates the hearing aid is in flight mode.

Exit flight mode:

Switch the hearing aid off and then on again.

This procedure will not remove or delete any of your programs or settings.

1. Press the lower part of the button for at least 15 seconds. It does not matter if the hearing aid is on or off when you begin. There will be no light or sound notification at the end of the 15 seconds.

2. Place the hearing aid in the power-connected charger and wait until the indicator light blinks green. This can take up to 30 seconds. The hearing aid is now ready to use.
