– Glowing Green = Charging
– Solid Green = Fully Charged
– Blinking Red = Fault State. To reset, remove the hearing aids from the charger, wait until LED turns off and re-insert the aids. If Fault State continues, call your hearing professional. -
When charging without the charger cord, the LEDs turn off when the hearing aids are fully charged to preserve the onboard battery.
-
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 port for three seconds and then reinsert it. LEDs illuminate for 10 seconds before turning off.

The desiccant puck provided will be effective for 3–6 months depending on the moisture in the hearing aids and humidity. When the desiccant puck fades from blue to white, it should be replaced.
-
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 ports. You will need to manually power off the hearing aids by pressing the user control on each hearing aid for three seconds.

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.
- Inspect the receiver, earbud, and wax guard regularly.
- 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 ports and hearing aid microphones clear of debris.
- Do not use water, solvents or cleaning fluids to clean the charging ports.
- 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 batteries 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

receiver. When you need to replace your wax guards, please
follow the instructions below.

- 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.

by Audibel. 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

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 Audibel beyond this limited warranty. No
person has authority to enlarge, amend, or modify this Limited Warranty.
Audibel 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 Audibel’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.
Audibel 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
Audibel’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 Audibel’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 Audibel authorized hearing professional from whom you purchased it. If that professional is unavailable, visit www.audibel.com or call the toll-free telephone number on the back of the Operations Manual to locate another authorized Audibel hearing professional.
What This Limited Warranty Does Not Cover
Batteries, earmolds, accessories, or damage to your hearing id 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 AUDIBLE 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 AUDIBLE 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.
