4 53. Place the hearing aid over the top of your ear.Putting your hearing aids on your earsYour behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing aids may be color-coded with a small dot on the battery door: red = right ear; blue = left ear. BTEs with earmolds1. Hold the earmold between your thumb and index finger. The opening should be pointing in towards your ear canal with the BTE resting upwards over the top of your ear. 2. Carefully insert the earmold in your ear. You may need to twist it slightly to the back. The earmold should fit into your ear snugly and comfortably. Pulling down and back on your earlobe may help you insert the earmold into your ear canal more easily.1.2.3.
6 7Turning your hearing aids on and off Your hearing aids have a three-position battery door that acts as an on/off switch and that allows access to the battery compartment.1. ON: Close the battery door fully. Note: It may take 5 seconds before the hearing aid turns on. Your hearing healthcare provider can additionally increase the start up delay if required.2. OFF: Partially open the battery door. off2.open3.1.on3. OPEN: Fully open the battery door to access and change the battery. Note: When turning your hearing aid on and off while it is on the ear, grasp the top and bottom of the device with your index finger and thumb. Use your thumb to open and close the battery door.
8 9Battery informationTo replace the battery, fully open the battery door for access to the battery compartment.Low battery warningTwo long beeps indicate the hearing aid battery is low. After the low battery warning, you may experience some reduction in sound quality. This is normal and can be remedied by inserting fresh batteries into the hearing aids.If you are not able to hear the low battery warning, your hearing healthcare professional can change the pitch or loudness of the low battery warning. If you prefer, it can be turned off entirely. Your hearing aids are designed to generate a low battery warning every 30 minutes until you change the batteries, but depending on the condition of the batteries, they may die before another low battery warning occurs. Therefore, it is recommended that the batteries are replaced as soon as possible once you hear the low battery warning.Replacing the battery1. Gently swing out the battery door with your fingernail. 2. Grasp the battery with your thumb and index finger and remove.3. Insert the new battery into the battery compartment with the plus (+) sign on the battery facing the same way as the plus (+) sign on the side of the battery door. This will ensure that the battery door closes properly. Note: If the battery is inserted incorrectly, the hearing aid will not turn on.4. Close the battery door.2.3.1.4.
10 11Replacing the battery in hearing aids with a tamper-resistant battery doorYour hearing instrument may have a tamper-resistant battery compartment.1. Unlock the tamper-resistant battery compartment by pulling the white lever with your fingernail and lift the lever up to release the battery. Remove the battery.2. Insert the new battery into the battery compartment with the plus (+) sign on the battery facing the same way as the plus (+) sign on the edge of the battery door. Lower the lever onto the battery and push it is until it is locked and securely holds the battery tight.3. Close the battery door.Caring for batteriesAlways discard batteries in a safe and environmentally friendly way.To prolong battery life, remember to turn your hearing aids off when not in use.Remove the batteries and keep the battery door open while hearing aids are not in use. This will allow internal moisture to evaporate.
12 13Tips for wearing hearing aids for the first time1. Start in a quiet room at home first to get used to the new sound quality. Sounds like the ticking of a clock, the humming of the computer, the beep of the microwave or the rustling of clothes or paper may seem loud to you at first, because you have not been hearing them properly for a long time.2. Read aloud to yourself and learn to correct the volume of your own voice when you are wearing the hearing aids.3. Talk to different people and learn how to distinguish between different sound patterns again.4. It will take some time before you are completely used to your hearing aids and can fully enjoy the benefits.5. Wear your hearing aids for as many hours a day as you can, and for a little longer each day.6. Make notes at the back of this booklet, write down difficult situations and describe what any unpleasant noises were like. This information will help your hearing healthcare professional to fine-tune the devices better for you.7. Involve your family and friends in this familiarization period. For example, ask someone to set the television to a comfortable volume.8. When you are beginning to get used to wearing the hearing aids, wear them in more difficult listening environments such as the office, at parties or in restaurants. This can be difficult even for people who can hear normally. Give yourself time to regain your ability to hear in these difficult situations.9. Make your hearing aids part of your everyday life and be patient with yourself until you have retrained yourself to interpret the sounds correctly.
14 15Operating instructionsYour BTE hearing aids come with two controls that allow you to further adjust your hearing aids – a lever and a push button.LeverThe lever on your hearing aids can be set up as either a volume control or a comfort-clarity control. Volume control If the lever has been configured as a volume control, you can adjust the volume of your hearing aids. Press up to increase; press down to decrease. As you change the volume level, your hearing aids will beep.

DuoLink works for both the push button and the lever.For example, if your push button is configured as a program control and DuoLink is enabled, when you push the button on your right hearing aid, the program will change in both hearing aids. LearningYour hearing aids will learn your adjustments in different environments, if this feature is available and has been enabled by your hearing healthcare professional. Over time, the hearing aids will adjust the default volume and comfort-clarity settings to the levels that you typically use.Remote controlYour hearing aids may also come with an optional remote control which allows you to switch between different listening programs, and change your volume or comfort-clarity settings.
22 23Using the telephoneAs telephones do not all work the same, you may experience different results from different phones. You can use many phones by simply holding the receiver to your ear, without the need to change to a dedicated telephone program on your hearing aids. Remember to move the handset slightly up or back to find the position that sounds best to you.Depending on the phone type you use, your hearing healthcare professional might have selected a dedicated phone program on your hearing aids. Your hearing aids may have an automatic telephone program (easy-t feature), which automatically switches to a dedicated telephone program when a telephone receiver is brought close to one of your hearing aids. You will hear a short melody to indicate you are in the telephone (easy-t) program.When the receiver is moved away from the hearing aid it will automatically return to the previous listening program. If DuoLink is enabled on your hearing aids for the automatic telephone program, both hearing aids are synchronized and the listening program for the opposite ear will also change when the automatic telephone program is activated. If the hearing aid does not switch to the telephone program automatically when the telephone receiver is placed in proximity, the magnet for easy-t hearing aids should be attached to the telephone receiver. The magnet is designed to strengthen the magnetic field at the ear piece of hearing aid compatible telephones.
24 25To affix the optional easy-t magnet:1. Clean the telephone receiver. Hold the magnet near the “listening end” of your telephone receiver and release it. The magnet will flip to the appropriate side and seek the optimal position on the telephone receiver.2. Place the double-sided tape in this optimal position on the telephone receiver. 3. Attach the magnet to the tape. Your hearing healthcare professional may also have set up a phone program that you can access through the push button on your hearing aids, or through your optional remote control.If your hearing aids are configured to work with the wireless uDirect™ 2 neck worn accessory, you might benefit from a Bluetooth® hands free option. Refer to the uDirect 2 user guide for more information. Caring for your hearing aidsOpen the battery door when not in use.Always remove your hearing aids when using hair care products. The hearing aids can become clogged and cease to function properly.Do not wear your hearing aids in the bath or shower or immerse them in water. If your hearing aids do become wet, do not attempt to dry them in an oven or microwave. Do not adjust any controls. Open the battery doors immediately, and allow your hearing aids to dry naturally for 24 hours.Protect your hearing aids from excessive heat (hair dryer, vehicle glove box or dashboard).Regular use of a dehumidifier, such as a Dri-Aid kit, can help prevent corrosion and prolong the life of your hearing aids. Do not drop your hearing aids or knock them against hard surfaces.1.2.3.® Bluetooth is a registered trademark of Bluetooth SIG Inc.
26 27Cleaning your hearing aidsEar wax is natural and common. Ensuring your hearing aids are free of ear wax is an important step in your daily cleaning and maintenance routine.Never use alcohol to clean your hearing aids, earmolds or domes.Do not use sharp tools to dislodge ear wax. Sticking household items into your hearing aids or earmolds can seriously damage them.EarmoldsAlways ensure earmolds are clean and free of earwax. Do not use alcohol to clean your earmolds. If the earmolds become plugged, clear the opening with a wax loop or pipe cleaner. If your physician prescribes eardrops, clean any moisture that may get into the earmolds or tubing to prevent plugging.If the earmolds require further cleaning: 1. Disconnect the plastic tube from the hook of the hearing aids. 2. Wash only the earmolds in warm water with a mild soap. 3. Rinse them with cool water and dry overnight. 4. Make sure the earmold tubes are dry before reconnecting them to each hook on your hearing aids. Use of a hearing aid blower can assist with removing moisture/debris from tube. See your hearing healthcare professional for more information.
28 29Signature features of your hearing aidsComfort-clarity control Your hearing aids automatically adjust to focus on hearing speech more clearly or providing comfort in noisy situations. Some Max hearing aid models provide a control to adjust your comfort-clarity settings. • Adjusting the comfort-clarity control up causes your hearing aids to focus more on speech clarity. • Adjusting the comfort-clarity control down causes your hearing aids to soften background noise, providing more comfort.Comfort-clarity control adjustments can be made using the controls on your hearing aids or a remote control. Please talk with your hearing healthcare professional to find out which controls have been programmed for the comfort-clarity control. As you adjust the comfort-clarity control, your Max hearing aids will gradually learn your preferred comfort-clarity settings.DuoLinkWith DuoLink, your hearing aids wirelessly communicate with each other. As you make a program, comfort-clarity or volume change on one hearing aid, the other hearing aid automatically changes as well. Binaural PhoneSome Max hearing aid models provide a Binaural Phone feature that enables you to hold a landline or mobile phone to one ear and hear the sound clearly in both ears. No accessories are required.uDirect 2 and uTV 2The uDirect 2 and uTV™ 2 are optional accessories for some Max BTE hearing aids. • uDirect 2 provides easy, hands-free access to Bluetooth enabled devices, such as mobile phones. It also has a wired audio jack to plug in devices like MP3 players.
30 31 • uTV 2 is used with the uDirect 2 to transmit sound from your TV directly to your hearing aids. The uTV 2 can also transmit sound from stereo systems, computers and other audio sources.For more information on using the uDirect 2 or uTV 2, please see the user guide for that accessory. For information on how to get a uDirect 2 or uTV 2 accessory, please contact your hearing healthcare professional.Assistive listening devicesListening in public placesTelecoils pick up electromagnetic energy and convert it into sound. Your hearing aid’s telecoil option can help you listen in public places equipped with telecoil compatible assistive listening devices such as a loop system. When you see this symbol, it means that there is loop system installed; this loop system is compatible with your hearing aid. Please contact your hearing healthcare professional for more information on loop systems.Connecting to external audio sourcesYour hearing aids may feature an optional direct audio input (DAI) to connect to other audio sources, such as a stereo or television, using an FM system or a cable. The uDirect 2, an optional wireless accessory, also has a DAI jack. Some Max hearing aids provide easy-DAI which automatically selects your direct audio input program when a DAI signal is detected by your hearing aids. A short melody will play to confirm that easy-DAI is activated. When you disconnect the DAI input, your hearing aids will return to the program you were in prior to switching.Ask your hearing healthcare professional for information about the direct audio input system and a connector cord.

36 37Warnings Hearing aids should only be used as directed by your physician or hearing healthcare professional. Hearing aids will not restore normal hearing and will not prevent or improve a hearing impairment resulting from organic conditions. Do not use your hearing aids in explosion hazard areas. Allergic reactions to hearing aids are unlikely. However, if you experience itching, redness, soreness, inflammation or a burning sensation in or around your ears, inform your hearing healthcare professional and contact your physician. In the unlikely case that any parts remain in the ear canal after the removal of the hearing aid, contact a physician immediately. Remove your hearing aids for CT and MRI scans or for other electromagnetic procedures. Special care should be exercised in wearing hearing aids when maximum sound pressure levels exceed 132 decibels. There may be a risk of impairing your remaining hearing. Speak with your hearing healthcare professional to ensure the maximum output of your hearing aids is suitable for your particular hearing loss.Easy-t magnet warnings Be sure the magnet is securely affixed to the telephone. Keep loose magnets out of reach of children and pets. If the magnet falls into your ear, contact your hearing healthcare professional. If the magnet is swallowed, contact your physician immediately.
38 39 The magnet may affect some medical devices or electronic systems. Always keep the magnet (or the telephone equipped with the magnet) at least 30 cm (12”) away from pacemakers, credit cards, floppy disks or other magnetically sensitive devices. Too high distortion during dialing or phoning may mean that the phone handset is stressed by the magnet. To avoid any damage, please move the magnet to another place on the telephone receiver.Battery warnings Never leave hearing aids or batteries where small children and pets can reach them. Never put hearing aids or batteries in your mouth. If a hearing aid or battery is swallowed, call a physician immediately.Precautions The use of hearing aids is only part of hearing rehabilitation; auditory training and lip reading instruction may be required as well. In most cases, infrequent use of hearing aids does not provide full benefit. Once you have become accustomed to your hearing aids, wear your hearing aids everyday all day. Your hearing aids use the most modern components to provide the best possible sound quality in every listening situation. However, communication devices such as digital cell phones can create interference (a buzzing sound) in hearing aids. If you experience interference from a cell phone being used close by, you can minimize this interference in a number of ways. Switch your hearing aids to another program, turn your head in a different direction or locate the cell phone and move away from it.LabelingThe serial number and year of manufacture are located inside the battery door.
40 41Warning to hearing aid dispensers (to comply with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations) A hearing aid dispenser should advise a prospective hearing aid user to consult promptly with a licensed physician (preferably an ear specialist) before dispensing a hearing aid if the hearing aid dispenser determines through inquiry, actual observation, or review of any other available information concerning the prospective user, that the prospective user has any of the following conditions: (i) Visible congenital or traumatic deformity of the ear. (ii) History of active drainage from the ear within the previous 90 days. (iii) History of sudden or rapidly progressive hearing loss within the previous 90 days. (iv) Acute or chronic dizziness. (v) Unilateral hearing loss of sudden or recent onset within the previous 90 days. (vi) Audiometric air-bone gap equal to or greater than 15 decibels at 500 hertz (Hz), 1,000 Hz, and 2,000 Hz. (vii) Visible evidence of significant cerumen accumulation or a foreign body in the ear canal. (viii) Pain or discomfort in the ear. Special care should be exercised in selecting and fitting a hearing aid whose maximum sound pressure level exceeds 132 decibels because there may be risk of impairing the remaining hearing of the hearing aid user. [This provision is required only for those hearing aids with a maximum sound pressure capability greater than 132 decibels (dB).]Important notice for prospective hearing aid users Good health practice requires that a person with a hearing loss have a medical evaluation by a licensed physician (preferably a physician who specializes in diseases of the ear) before purchasing a hearing aid.Licensed physicians who specialize in diseases of the ear are often referred to as otolaryngologists, otologists or otorhinolaryngologists. The purpose of medical evaluation is to assure that all medically treatable conditions that may affect hearing are identified and treated before the hearing aid is purchased. Following the medical evaluation, the physician will give you a written statement that states that your hearing loss has been medically evaluated and that you may be considered a candidate for a hearing aid. The physician will refer you to an audiologist or a hearing aid dispenser, as appropriate, for a hearing aid evaluation. The audiologist or hearing aid dispenser will conduct a hearing aid evaluation to assess your ability to hear with and without a hearing aid. The hearing aid evaluation will enable the audiologist or dispenser to select and fit a hearing aid to your individual needs. If you have reservations about your ability to adapt to amplification, you should inquire about the availability of a trial-rental or purchase-option program. Many hearing aid dispensers now offer programs that permit you to wear a hearing aid for a period of time for a nominal fee after which you may decide if you want to purchase the hearing aid. Federal law restricts the sale of hearing aids to those individuals who have obtained a medical evaluation from a licensed physician. Federal law permits a fully informed adult to sign a waiver statement declining the medical evaluation for religious or personal beliefs that preclude consultation with a physician. The exercise of such a waiver is not in your best health interest and its use is strongly discouraged.
42 43Children with hearing loss In addition to seeing a physician for a medical evaluation, a child with a hearing loss should be directed to an audiologist for evaluation and rehabilitation since hearing loss may cause problems in language development and the educational and social growth of a child. An audiologist who is qualified by training and experience to assist in the evaluation and rehabilitation of a child with hearing loss is recommended.Cell phoneSome hearing aid users have reported a buzzing sound in their hearing aids when they are using cell phones. According to the ANSI C63.19 standard, the compatibility of a particular hearing aid and cell phone can be predicted by adding the rating for the hearing aid immunity to the rating for the cell phone emissions. The sum of the hearing aid rating (e.g. M2/T2 = 2) and the telephone rating (e.g. M3/T3 = 3) is 5, and any combination that equals 5 will provide ‘normal use’. A sum of 6 or greater indicates ‘excellent performance’. The equipment performance, measurements, categories and system classifications are based upon the best information available but cannot guarantee that all users will be satisfied.The rating of this hearing aid is at least M2/T2. Your hearing healthcare professional can provide the actual rating for this hearing aid.Note: the performance of the individual hearing aids may vary with individual cell phones. Therefore, please try the hearing aid with your cell phone or, if you are purchasing a new phone, please be sure to try it with your hearing aid prior to purchase. For additional guidance, please ask your hearing healthcare professional for the booklet entitled “Hearing aid compatibility with digital wireless cell phones”.Compliance informationDeclaration of conformityHereby Unitron declares that this Unitron product meets the requirements of the Medical Devices Directive 93/42/EEC as well as the Radio and Telecommunications Terminal Equipment Directive 1999/5/EC.
