Charging Your Hearing Aids

  • Place your hearing aids in the charger with the faceplate facing downward so battery contacts on the hearing aid align with charging posts within the charger.
  • Your hearing aids will turn off automatically and begin to charge, as long as your charger is powered.
  • Note: The LEDs corresponding to each hearing aid:

| Glowing Green = Charging
---|---
Solid Green = Fully Charged
Blinking Red = Fault State. To reset, remove the hearing aids from the charger, wait until LED turns ff, and re-insert the aids. If Fault State continues, call your clinician.

  • If you will not be wearing your hearing aids for an extended period of time (i.e, weeks), remove both the plug from the charger and the hearing aids from the charging posts. You will need to manually power off the hearing aids by pressing the user control on each hearing aid for three seconds. If your hearing aids do not have a user control button, place your hearing aids in the charger to power off.
  • Charging occurs with the lid open or closed; hearing aids will be fully charged in under 3 1/2 hours.
  • It is safe to store hearing aids in the charger after they are fully charged and any time that you are not wearing them.
  • Hearing aids will automatically power on when removed from the charger.
  • To illuminate LEDs when the charger is not plugged in, remove a hearing aid from its charging post for three seconds and then re-insert it. LEDs illuminate for 10 seconds before turning off.
  • When charging without the charger cord, the LEDs turn off when the hearing aids are fully charged to preserve the onboard battery.

Power On & Off

ON – The hearing aids will power on automatically after removing them from the charger, as long as your charger is powered. There is a delay that allows you time to insert your hearing aid into your ear.
ON – If the hearing aid is manually powered off, pressing the user control for three seconds willpower it on. The delay still exists, to give you time to insert the hearing aid into your ear.
OFF – The hearing aids will power off automatically when placed on the charger post. Charging will proceed.
OFF – The hearing aids can be powered off manually by pressing the user control for three seconds.

System Care

HEARING AID CARE
Keep your hearing aid clean. Heat, moisture, and foreign substances can result in poor performance.

  • Use a cleaning brush or soft cloth to clean debris from around the user control, microphone and battery compartment.
  • Clean daily holding over a soft cloth to prevent damage from a fall to a hard surface.
  • Never use water, solvents, cleaning fluids or oil to clean your hearing aid.

CHARGER CARE
Keep your charger clean. Heat, moisture, and foreign materials can result in poor performance.

  • Use the provided cleaning brush to keep the charging posts and hearing aid microphones clear of debris.
  • Do not use water, solvents or cleaning fluids to clean the charging posts.
  • Keep lid closed as much as possible to avoid dust and debris buildup.
  • Store your charger in a clean and dry location such as a dresser or shelf rather than the bathroom or kitchen. To ensure the longest life of your rechargeable hearing aid batteries and the battery in the charger:
  • Fully charge hearing aid batteries every night.
  • Do not expose to excess heat, i.e., do not store on a window sill or in a hot car.

Helpful Hints

  • Do not take apart your hearing aids or insert the cleaning tools inside them.
  • When not in use, place your hearing aid in the storage container and store:
    – In a dry, safe place
    – Away from direct sunlight and heat to avoid extreme temperatures
    – Where you can easily find them
    – Safely out of reach from children and pets

Hear Clear Receiver Wax Guards
Custom hearing aids integrate disposable Hear Clear earwax protection. The innovative wax guards prevent earwax accumulation in the hearing aid receiver. When you need to replace your wax guards, please follow the instructions below.

  1. Insert the empty end of the application and stick it straight into the used wax guard in the hearing aid.
  2. Pull straight out (do not twist) on the stick to remove the used wax guard.
  3. Use opposite end of the stick to firmly insert clean wax guard straight into the hearing aid.
  4. Pull straight out (do not twist) to remove the stick and discard.
