Batteries
Your hearing aid uses a battery as its power source. To insert or replace the battery:
- Use the fingerpick on the battery door.
- Open the battery door gently and remove the old battery.
- Remove the colored tab from the new battery. Wait 3–5 minutes after removing the tab before inserting the battery.
- Insert into the battery door, “+” side up.
- Close the battery door.
-
NEVER FORCE THE BATTERY DOOR SHUT.
This could result in serious damage. If the door will not close securely, check that the battery is inserted correctly. -
Do not open the battery door too far or damage is likely to occur.
-
Dispose of used batteries immediately in the proper waste or recycling container.
Battery Indicators
An indicator will sound when the battery voltage is low. You have approximately 30 minutes * to replace the battery. An indicator may also sound just before the battery stops working.
Power On & Off
TO TURN ON:
Insert a battery and completely close the battery door. Your hearing aid has a power‑on delay which may require a few seconds. You may hear a tone indicating that your hearing aid is powered on.
TO TURN OFF:
Open the battery door until the battery is no longer touching the battery contacts.
Hearing Aid Care
Keep your hearing aid clean. Heat, moisture, and foreign substances can result in poor performance.
-
Actual time between low battery indicator and shutdown will vary depending on environmental noise levels and brand of battery used.
- Use a cleaning brush or soft cloth to clean debris from around the user control, microphone, and battery compartment.
- Inspect the receiver, earbud, and wax guard regularly.
- Never use water, solvents, cleaning fluids, or oil to clean your hearing aid.
Helpful Hints
- When not wearing your hearing aid, open the battery door to allow any moisture to evaporate.
- 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.
- Insert the empty end of the application stick straight into a used wax guard in the hearing aid.
- Pull straight out (do not twist) on a stick to remove the used wax guard.
- Use the opposite end of the stick to firmly insert a clean wax guard straight into the hearing aid.
- Pull straight out (do not twist) to remove the stick and discard.

Limited Warranty
This Limited Warranty provided by NuEar, to you, the original purchaser of a
Starkey hearing aid, covers your new hearing aid when sold by a hearing
professional authorized by NuEar. This Limited Warranty is a general guide and
may vary by purchase. The duration of this Limited Warranty begins when you
first take delivery of your hearing aid/charger from an authorized hearing
professional and ends thirty-six (36) or twenty-four (24) months later
(“warranty period”):
36 months: Evolv AI 2400, Charger
24 months: Evolv AI 2000/1600/1200
Limitation on Duration of Implied Warranties
IMPLIED WARRANTIES, IF ANY, ARISING BY WAY OF STATE LAW, INCLUDING ANY
IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY AND/OR ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR
A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD. There is
no warranty of any nature made by NuEar beyond this Limited Warranty. No
person has authority to enlarge, amend, or modify this Limited Warranty. NuEar
is not responsible for any undertaking, representation, or warranty (written,
express, or implied) made by any hearing professional or other person beyond
those expressly set forth in this Limited Warranty.
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so
the above limitation may not apply to you.
What this Limited Warranty Covers
This Limited Warranty covers only a “defect” in the workmanship performed
and/or materials used to manufacture your hearing aid.
“Defect” means the failure of the workmanship performed and/or materials used
to conform the hearing aid to NuEar’s design and manufacturing specifications
and tolerances.
Your hearing professional may have issued a warranty or service plan that goes
beyond the provisions of this Limited Warranty. Please contact him or her for
further information.
NuEar will either replace the hearing aid or repair any covered defect in your
hearing aid, provided that you deliver your hearing aid to one of NuEar’s
authorized hearing professionals and notify the hearing professional of the
defect during the warranty period and within thirty (30) days of discovering
the defect. There will be no cost to you for NuEar’s repair or replacement of
the aid itself, but the hearing professional may charge a fee for services he
or she provides. Performance of warranty repairs on your hearing aid shall not
extend the duration of the warranty period. Any repairs performed on your
hearing aid after the warranty period has expired shall be considered
“goodwill” repairs, which shall not alter the terms of this Limited Warranty.
How to Obtain Warranty Service
Deliver your hearing aid (at your expense) to the NuEar authorized hearing
professional from whom you purchased it. If that professional is unavailable,
visit www.nuear.com or call the toll-free telephone
number on the back of the Operations Manual to locate another authorized NuEar
hearing professional.
What This Limited Warranty Does Not Cover
Batteries, earmolds, accessories, or damage to your hearing aid caused by
misuse or neglect, accident, unauthorized alteration, or failure to provide
reasonable and necessary maintenance and cleaning.
Disclaimer of Consequential and Incidental Damages
THE PURCHASER SHALL NOT BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER FROM STARKEY ANY CONSEQUENTIAL
OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM ANY DEFECT IN THE HEARING AID, INCLUDING
BY WAY OF EXAMPLE ONLY, EXPENSES TO DELIVER THE HEARING AID TO AN AUTHORIZED
HEARING PROFESSIONAL, HOTEL ROOMS, OR LOST WAGES. THIS EXCLUSION AND
DISCLAIMER OF CONSEQUENTIAL AND INCIDENTAL DAMAGES SHALL BE DEEMED INDEPENDENT
OF AND SHALL SURVIVE, ANY FAILURE OF THE ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY REMEDY OF
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of
consequential or incidental damages, so the above exclusions may not apply to
you.
Your Legal Remedies
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY DOES NOT “EXTEND TO FUTURE PERFORMANCE.” ANY ACTION TO
ENFORCE THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES MAY AND SHALL NOT BE
COMMENCED MORE THAN 90 DAYS AFTER THE EXPIRATION OF THE WARRANTY PERIOD. THE
PERFORMANCE OF REPAIRS SHALL NOT SUSPEND THIS LIMITATIONS PERIOD FROM
EXPIRING. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL NUEAR BE OBLIGATED TO REFUND ALL OR ANY
PART OF THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE HEARING AID. Some states do not allow the
reduction in the limitation period, so the above reduction in the limitation
period may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights.
You may also have other rights which vary from state to state. This warranty
is valid only in the United States.
Product specifications may be obtained from your hearing professional.
