Approx. 290 hours

-  Battery life will change depending on the operating condi-

tion.

-  When the battery is almost depleted, a warning beep

sounds every fi ve minutes. Depending on operating condi-
tions, however, the battery may run out of charge before 
the next beep sounds.

the hearing aid is not to be used.

Inserting Hearing Aid in Your Ear

This hearing aid does not have a power switch. The battery 
holder also functions as power switch.

Power / OFF:  Open the battery holder.
Power / ON: 

Close the battery holder fi rmly.

1.  Open the battery holder slightly, so that the hearing aid is set 

to the OFF condition. 

2.  Hold the hearing aid while tilted slightly forward and insert the 

sound outlet into the ear. Then gently push the hearing aid in 
while rotating it backwards. 

HOW TO USE YOUR FIRST HEARING AID

  Any hearing aid cannot return level of your hearing to normal or 

halt further hearing deterioration, but proper use of your hearing 
aid can help you hear what is going on around you and let you 
get more enjoyment of life.

  If this is your fi rst hearing aid, you - like most new users - will prob-

ably be surprised at the loudness of the sounds, and after using it 
for a short while, you may even feel that it is too noisy. The following 
three tips are important in overcoming your concerns.

1)  Read this manual and become familiar with the hearing aid's 

various mechanisms and how to use them correctly.

2)  First, use your hearing aid in a quiet place and listen to quiet 

sounds and give yourself suffi cient time to get accustomed to 
the sound of your hearing aid.

3)  If any physical problems develop, consult your doctor.

FOR KEEPING YOUR HEARING AID LONGER

 

Always keep the hearing aid clean. 

Clean the hearing aid with dry 

cloth periodically and also remove earwax plugged in the sound 
outlet using eyebrush or toothbrush. 

  Do not expose the hearing aid to the heat from stoves, etc. Also, 

avoid leaving it in places with high humidity.

  Operate the controls with care.  
  If the hearing aid is dropped in water, wipe with dry cloth and ask 

the dealer for check.

  Do not pick the microphone with nail, pin, etc., because this may 

damage the microphone.

  Do not disassemble or attempt any repairs by yourself. Ask the 

dealer for repair.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Parts and Controls

  Lightly push the top section of the hearing aid until it fi ts snugly 

into the ear. 

Note: 

If the hearing aid is inserted with the battery holder 
closed (ON), acoustic feedback may occur.

3.  When the hearing aid is properly seated in your ear, close the 

battery holder to turn it on.

  Depending on the shape of the user's ear, there may be no 

vent, or the vent may be in a different position. 

  The communication connector serves for adjustment of the 

hearing aid by the hearing aid professional.
