Welcome

Thank you for choosing our hearing in󰘵ruments to

accompany you through everyday life. Like anything new,

it may take you a little time to become familiar with them.

This guide, along with support from your Hearing Care

Professional, will help you under󰘵and the advantages

and greater quality of life your hearing in󰘵ruments o󰘯er.

To receive the mo󰘵 bene󰘰t from your hearing

in󰘵ruments, it is recommended that you wear them every

day, all day. This will help you get adju󰘵ed to them.

CAUTION

It is important to read this user guide and the safety

manual thoroughly and completely. Follow the

safety information to avoid damage or injury.

Before using your hearing in󰘵ruments for the 󰘰r󰘵

time, fully charge them. Follow the in󰘵ructions in

the charger's user guide.

Your hearing in󰄋ruments

This user guide describes optional features that

your hearing in󰘵ruments may or may not have.

Ask your Hearing Care Professional to indicate the

features that are valid for your hearing in󰘵ruments.

In󰄋rument type

Your hearing in󰘵ruments are a RIC (Receiver-in-Canal)

model. The receiver is placed within the ear canal and

connected to the in󰘵rument via a receiver cable. The

in󰘵ruments are not intended for children under the age

of 3 years or persons with a developmental age of under

3 years.

A power cell (lithium-ion rechargeable battery) is

permanently built into your hearing in󰘵rument.

This enables easy charging with our charger.

The wireless functionality enables advanced audiological

features and synchronization between your two hearing

in󰘵ruments.

Getting to know your hearing in󰄋ruments

Your hearing in󰘵ruments have no controls.

If you want to adju󰘵 the volume or switch hearing

programs manually, you can ask your Hearing Care

Professional about a remote control option.

Daily use

Charging

Place your hearing in󰘵ruments

in the charger.

XFollow the in󰘵ructions in

the charger's user guide.

You can also 󰘰nd useful tips

for charging in the charger's

user guide.

XIf you have earmolds

attached to your Stylettos, please remove them prior

to charging. You will have to rein󰘵all them once your

Stylettos are charged.

Low power indication

You will hear an alert signal to indicate the power cell is

running low. The signal will be repeated every 15 minutes.

Depending on the usage of your hearing in󰘵ruments,

you have approximately 1.5 hours to charge your hearing

in󰘵ruments before they 󰘵op working.

Battery lifetime

The power cell has a 󰘰nite lifetime - as all rechargeable

batteries do. If the fully charged hearing in󰘵ruments

do not la󰘵 over a full day of use (16 hours regular use

without audio 󰘵reaming) then we recommend returning

the hearing in󰘵ruments to your Hearing Care Professional.

The Hearing Care Professional will provide a replacement.

Turning on and o󰓐

You have the following options to turn your hearing

in󰘵ruments on or o󰘯.

XTurning on: Take the in󰘵ruments out of the charger.

The 󰘵artup melody is played in your hearing

in󰘵ruments. The default volume and hearing program

are set.

XTurning o󰘯: Place the hearing in󰘵ruments in the

charger.

Note that the charger mu󰘵 be on. For details refer to the

charger's user guide.

Switching to 󰄋andby mode

Via remote control or smartphone app, you can switch

your hearing in󰘵ruments to 󰘵andby mode. This mutes the

hearing in󰘵ruments. When you leave 󰘵andby mode, the

previously used volume and hearing program are set.

Note:

● In 󰘵andby mode, the hearing in󰘵ruments are not

turned o󰘯 completely. They draw some power.

Therefore we recommend to use 󰘵andby mode only

for a short period of time.

● If you want to leave 󰘵andby mode, but the remote

control or app is not at hand: Turn your hearing

in󰘵ruments o󰘯 and on again (by shortly placing them in

10 11

the charger until one or more LEDs light up).

Wait until the 󰘵artup melody is played in your hearing

in󰘵ruments. This may take several seconds. Note that

the default volume and hearing program are set.

Inserting and removing the hearing in󰄋ruments

Your hearing in󰘵ruments have been 󰘰ne-tuned for your

right and left ear. Letters indicate the side:

● R = right ear

● L = left ear

Inserting a hearing in󰘵rument:

XFor Click Sleeves, take care that the bend of the

Click Sleeve is in line with the bend of the receiver

cable.

Correct:

Incorrect:

XHold the receiver cable at the bend closer to the

ear piece.

XCarefully push the ear piece in

the ear canal ➊.

XTwi󰘵 it slightly until it sits well.

XInsert the ear piece carefully and not too deeply

into the ear.

12 13

● It may be helpful to insert the right hearing

in󰘵rument with the right hand and the left

hearing in󰘵rument with the left hand.

● If you have problems inserting the ear piece,

use the other hand to gently pull your earlobe

downwards. This opens the ear canal and eases

insertion of the ear piece.

The optional retention 󰘵rand helps to securely retain the

ear piece in your ear. To position the retention 󰘵rand:

XBend the retention 󰘵rand and

position it carefully into the

bottom of the bowl of your ear

(refer to the picture).

Removing a hearing in󰘵rument:

➋

XGrip the receiver in the ear canal with two 󰘰ngers and

pull it carefully out ➋.

Do not pull the receiver cable.

CAUTION

Risk of injury!

XIn very rare cases the ear piece could remain in

your ear when removing the hearing in󰘵rument.

If this happens, have the ear piece removed by

a medical professional.

Clean and dry your hearing in󰘵ruments after usage.

Read more in section "Maintenance and care".

Adju󰄋ing the volume

Your hearing in󰘵ruments automatically adju󰘵 the volume

to the li󰘵ening situation.

XIf you prefer manual volume adju󰘵ment, use a remote

control option.

An optional signal can indicate the volume change.

Changing the hearing program

Depending on the li󰘵ening situation, your hearing

in󰘵ruments automatically adju󰘵 their sound.

Your hearing in󰘵ruments may also have several hearing

programs which allow you to change the sound, if

needed. An optional signal tone can indicate the program

change.

XTo change the hearing program manually, use a

remote control option.

Refer to section "Hearing programs" for a li󰘵 of your

hearing programs.

The default volume is applied.

Special li󰄋ening situations

the telephone receiver slightly above

your ear. The hearing in󰘵rument and

telephone receiver have to be aligned.

Turn the receiver slightly so that the

ear is not completely covered.

Telephone program

You may prefer a certain volume when using the phone.

Ask your Hearing Care Professional to con󰘰gure a

telephone program.

XSwitch to the telephone program whenever you are on

the phone.

If a telephone program is con󰘰gured for your hearing

in󰘵ruments, it is li󰘵ed in section "Hearing programs".

Maintenance and care

To prevent damage it is important that you take care of

your hearing in󰘵ruments and follow a few basic rules,

which will soon become a part of your daily routine.

Hearing in󰄋ruments

Cleaning

Your hearing in󰘵ruments have a protective coating.

However, if not cleaned regularly you may damage the

hearing in󰘵ruments or cause personal injury.

XClean your hearing in󰘵ruments daily with a soft, dry

tissue.

XNever use running water or immerse the

devices in water.

XNever apply pressure while cleaning.

XAsk your Hearing Care Professional for recommended

cleaning products, special care sets, or more

information on how to keep your hearing in󰘵ruments

in good condition.

Drying

Use conventional products to dry your hearing

in󰘵ruments. Ask your Hearing Care Professional

for recommended drying products and for individual

in󰘵ructions on when to dry your hearing in󰘵ruments.

Storage

● Short-term 󰘵orage (up to several days): Turn o󰘯 your

hearing in󰘵ruments by placing them in the charger.

The charger mu󰘵 be on. If the charger is not on and

you place your hearing in󰘵ruments in the charger, the

hearing in󰘵ruments are not turned o󰘯.

Note that when you turn o󰘯 the hearing in󰘵ruments

via a remote control or smartphone app, the hearing

in󰘵ruments are not turned o󰘯 completely. They are in

󰘵andby-mode and 󰘵ill draw some power.

● Long-term 󰘵orage (weeks, months, ...): Fir󰘵, fully

charge your hearing in󰘵ruments. Leave them in the

charger and turn the charger o󰘯. For details refer to

the charger's user guide.

The hearing in󰘵ruments are also turned o󰘯. We

recommend using drying products while 󰘵oring the

hearing in󰘵ruments.

At 6 month intervals you will have to charge the

hearing in󰘵ruments to avoid an unrecoverable

deep-discharge of the power cell. Deep-discharged

power cells cannot be charged anymore and they

have to be replaced. We recommend recharging more

frequently than 6 month intervals.

Observe the 󰘵orage conditions in section

"Operating, transport and 󰘵orage conditions".

Ear pieces

Cleaning

Cerumen (ear wax) may accumulate on the ear pieces.

This may a󰘯ect sound quality. Clean the ear pieces daily.

For all types of ear pieces:

XClean the

ear piece right

after removal

with a soft and

dry tissue.

This prevents

that cerumen

becomes dry

and hard.

For Click Domes or Click Sleeves:

XSqueeze the tip of the ear piece.

Exchanging

Exchange 󰘵andard ear pieces approximately every

three months. Replace them sooner if you notice

cracks or other changes. The procedure for exchanging

󰘵andard ear pieces depends on the type of ear piece.

In section "Components and names", your Hearing Care

Professional has marked your type of ear piece.

Exchanging Click Domes

XTo remove the old Click Dome, use the removal tool

or follow the in󰘵ructions on the packaging of the

Click Domes. Be careful not to pull the receiver cable.

The removal tool is available as an accessory.

XTake particular care that
