1 Introduction

Congratulations on the purchase of your new hearing aids. ReSound’s innovative sound technology and

design, combined with the customized programming selected by your hearing care professional, will

make hearing a more enjoyable experience.

Please read this manual carefully in order to wholly beneﬁt from the use of your hearing aids. With

proper care, maintenance, and usage, your hearing aids will serve you in better communication for many

years.

Ask your hearing care professional if you have any questions.

2 Intended use

Generic air-conduction hearing aids are wearable sound-amplifying devices intended to compensate for

impaired hearing. The fundamental operating principle of hearing aids is to receive, amplify, and transfer

sound to the eardrum of a hearing-impaired person.

3 Becoming accustomed to ampliﬁcation

While purchasing hearing aids is a major step, it is only one step in a process toward more comfortable

hearing. Successfully adapting to the ampliﬁcation your hearing aid provides takes time and consistent

use.

You will enjoy more beneﬁts from your ReSound hearing aids by taking the following actions:

• Wear the hearing aids regularly in order to get comfortable with using them

• It takes time to get used to hearing aids. It may help to begin by wearing your hearing aid for short

periods – even as little as 15 minutes – and then gradually increasing your wearing time. In a way, it

is no dierent from adjusting to contact lenses. Speak to your hearing care professional, who can

design a schedule tailored just for you.

• As you get more comfortable with them, increase the wearing time and wear your hearing aids in

multiple types of listening environments.

It may take as long as several months for your brain to get used to all the “new” sounds around you. Fol-

lowing these suggestions will give your brain time to learn how to interpret ampliﬁcation and increase

the beneﬁts you get from using ReSound hearing aids.

7 Getting started

Once you have placed the hearing aids in your ears, you can turn them on.

The hearing aid always starts in program 1 (one) and with the pre-set volume.

7.1 On/O function

1. Close the battery door to turn on the hearing aid in program

1 (one).

2. Open the battery door to turn o the hearing aid. Use your

ﬁngernail to pull it open.

7.1.1 Smart Start

Smart Start delays the time before the hearing aid turns on after you close the battery door. With Smart

Start, you will hear a beep ( etc.) for each second of the delay period (5 or 10 seconds delay).

If you do not want to turn on the hearing aids prior to placing them on your ear, ask your hearing care

professional to de-activate Smart Start.

7.2 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 2 for information on appro-

priate battery type/size for your hearing aid). Remove the protective foil to

activate the battery.

On O

3. Wait for 2 minutes before inserting the battery

into the hearing aid.

4. Insert the new battery with the positive side in

the correct position. Always insert the battery in

the door: never directly into the hearing aid.

5. Gently close the battery door.

i1. Always use new Zinc-Air batteries that have a minimum remaining shelf life of 1 year.

2. Whenever the hearing aids are not in use, remember to turn them o to avoid unnecessary

battery consumption.

3. At night, switch o the hearing aid and open the battery door completely to allow moisture to

evaporate and prolong the hearing aid’s lifespan.

4. If the hearing aid is experiencing frequent loss of connection to wireless accessories, contact

your hearing care professional for a list of low impedance batteries.

iWARNING: Batteries contain dangerous substances and should be disposed of carefully in the

interest of your safety and for the environment. Also, keep batteries away from pets, children and

mentally disabled persons.

7.3 Low battery indicator

The hearing aid will reduce ampliﬁcation and play a melody if battery power gets too low. This signal will

recur every 15 minutes until the hearing aid automatically switches o.

If you do not want the low battery warning, ask your hearing care professional to deactivate it.

iNOTE: Keep spare batteries on hand.

7.3.1 Low battery indicator when paired with wireless accessories only (optional)

The batteries drain faster when you use wireless functionalities like direct streaming from your iPhone or

streaming sound from your TV with our TV Streamer. When the batteries deplete, the support of some

wireless accessories shuts down. Full functionality returns when you insert a new battery.

The table below shows how the functionality decreases with the depletion of the batteries.

7.4 Insert/remove hearing aids

7.4.1 Insert Mic-In-Helix

1. Hold the hearing aid between your thumb and index

ﬁnger.

2. Place the sound outlet portion into your ear canal.

3. Gently twist and push the hearing aid into the ear. Opening

and closing your mouth can ease insertion.

4. Gently push the microphone into the creased area of the

ear, and make sure the tubing is in place.
