Introduction This guide is intended for Hearing Care Professionals. It provides important information on hearing instruments with permanently built‑in power cells (lithium‑ion batteries). CAUTION It is important to read this guide, the user guide and the safety manual thoroughly. Follow the safety information to avoid damage or injury.
Before and after fitting You have to prepare the hearing instruments before you can start fitting. Assembling A power cell is installed in every hearing instrument on delivery. There is no need to insert a battery. Attach the suitable receiver unit and a suitable ear piece to the hearing instruments. The procedure is the same as for any other of our RIC hearing instruments. Activating Before first use or first fitting you have to activate the hearing instruments by putting them into the charger. Wait until the first orange LED lights up.
Charging The hearing instruments are pre‑charged on delivery. They should have sufficient power for a first fitting session. We recommend to fully charge the hearing instruments before first fitting and handover to the client. A full charging cycle takes approximately 4 hours. Follow the operating conditions in both the hearing instrument's and the charger's user guide. Connecting Use Noahlink Wireless to fit the hearing instruments wirelessly.
Noting the serial number Both serial number and performance level are printed on the housing and on the frame. ● When you change the housing: ● Do not re‑use the old housing with imprinted serial number. ● Note down the serial number in the customer's user guide, on the last page. This way you don't have to remove the housing to read the serial number. ● ...
Replacing the housing NOTICE This maintenance task must be performed by the Hearing Care Professional. When you disassemble a housing with imprinted serial number, dispose of the housing. Disassembling Remove the receiver unit and the axles. Insert the included tool into the front end of the hearing instrument and detach the top housing.
