Tip:
1. Always use new Zinc-Air batteries that have a minimum remaining shelf life of one year.
2. Whenever the hearing instruments are not in use, remember to turn them off to avoid unnecessary
battery consumption.
Low battery indicator
Your hearing care professional can set your hearing instrument to give an acoustical indication when the bat-
tery is reaching its end of life. The hearing instrument will reduce amplification and emit a melody if battery
power gets too low. This signal will recur every 15 minutes until the hearing instrument automatically switches
off. It is recommended that you keep spare batteries on hand.
Low battery indicator when paired with wireless accessories only
Active usage of the ReSound Unite accessories (Remote Control 2, Phone Clip+, TV Streamer 2 and Mini
Microphone) requires more battery power from the hearing instruments than when these are working on
their own meaning that battery life is highly dependent on the amount of wireless accessory usage. When
the battery in the hearing instrument has depleted to a level at which use of the ReSound Unite TV Streamer
2, Phone Clip+ and Mini Microphone cannot be supported, the hearing instrument will play two sets of
descending tones. After this, your hearing instrument and ReSound Unite Remote Control 2 will continue
to work as usual, but you will not be able to use your ReSound Unite TV Streamer 2, Phone Clip+ and Mini
Microphone. At some point the battery level will not support the remote control either and you will once
again hear the descending tones. The hearing instruments will continue to work as usual. Once a new bat-
tery is inserted, full operation of the accessories will resume.
Getting started
On/Off function
1. When the battery door is closed, the hearing instrument turns on,
and the default programme will be activ ated.
2. To turn off the hearing instrument, open the battery door. Use your
fingernail to pull it open.
SmartStart
Hearing instruments can be turned on once you have placed them on your ears. If you prefer to turn them on
just prior to placing them on your ear, your hearing care professional can activate a function called Smart-
Start. This function will delay the time in which the hearing instruments turn on after the battery compart-
ment is closed. With SmartStart, a beep will be heard for each second of the delay period.
Inserting/Replacing the battery
1. Open the battery door completely by using your fingernail. Remove the used
battery if present.
2. Prepare the new battery (please refer to page 6 for information on appropriate
battery type/size for your hearing instrument). Remove the protective foil and
wait 2 minutes before inserting the battery into the hearing instrument to
allow activation of the battery.
3. Insert the new battery with the positive side in the correct position.
4. Gently close the battery door.
