hearing aid
A size 10 hearing aid battery is used.
After removing the sticky tab from a new battery, leave the battery
for 1-2 minutes before inserting into the hearing aid.
Insert the battery after the battery door is fully opened. Close the
battery door smoothly after a new battery is installed. Do not close
the battery door with force as it may damage the hearing aid. If you
cannot close the battery door, check whether the battery is installed
correctly. The flat or positive “+” battery side should be facing up
to where the tiny “+” or red/blue mark is on the battery door.
Remove the battery if the hearing aid is not to be used for an
extended period of time.

The battery door also functions as the on/off switch. The hearing aid
is on when the battery door is fully closed. To turn the hearing aid
off, pull open/lift the battery door with a fingernail. Please remember
to switch the hearing aids off when it is not in use to reduce battery
consumption. If you have just turned off by opening the battery door,
wait at least three seconds before turning it on again.
Turning the
hearing aid
on and off
Hold your hearing aid with your thumb and forefinger on the outer
edges of the case. Gently insert the canal tip of the instrument into
your ear canal until you feel resistance. Use tip of your forefinger to
gently push the hearing aids into your ear until it feels comfortable in
your canal. To help position the hearing aid you can pull the outer ear
backwards and upwards with the opposite hand. The removal cord
should be on the bottom; the microphone end at the top.

A selection of domes has been included with your hearing aid. The
hearing aid can also be worn without any domes. The function of the
domes is to improve fitting comfort and/or reduce whistling.
To remove a dome, pinch the dome with your fingers and pull off the
end of the hearing aid. To insert: Push the dome onto the end of the
hearing aid so that it is on as securely as possible. The dome should
not pull off the hearing aid when you pull on it with light pressure.
Please check before each insertion into the ear.
Using the
fitting domes
Most people find it easiest to remove the hearing aid
via the removal cord. Hold the removal cord between
thumb and forefinger and gently take the hearing aid
out of your ear. Never use the battery door to pull
the hearing aid out. Damage may occur as it is not
designed to withstand the pressure of pulling.
The HD230 has 3 settings but will always start up in
setting 1. Press the button once firmly when in the ear
to change to setting 2. You will hear 2 beeps. This is
3dB louder than setting 1. Press again and you will hear
3 beeps for setting 3 – an increase of 3dB over setting 2.
One more press and you will be back to setting 1.
These settings can be fine-tuned by Hearing Direct
if need be.

Use a small brush to gently brush away any accumulated
earwax from the hearing aid sound outlet.
Cleaning your
hearing aid
It is important to regularly check the wax guard on the end of
the hearing aid (white circle) for any build up of earwax. If any
accumulated wax cannot be brushed away it is time to change the wax
guard. The existing wax guard should be removed from the end of the
hearing aid using the orange tool supplied originally with your order.
New wax guards can then be attached into the hearing aid using the
other side of the tool. Further instructions can be found on the cards
carrying the new wax guards. New wax guard cards can be obtained
from the website.

wax guard

Moisture build up is a common cause of hearing aid failure and
preventing it from occurring will help extend the life of the hearing aid.
We recommend placing hearing aids into a ‘dry-aid kit’ or dehumidifier
overnight which will help draw moisture out of the instruments
overnight. A selection of dry aid kits are available on our website.
Please do not wear the hearing aid when swimming. Remove the
hearing aid when it is raining, and when showering or bathing. If
hearing aid accidentally falls into the water, do not use a hairdryer or
microwave to dry it. You can dry it with a soft, clean cotton cloth and
put it in a ventilated environment, or in a dry aid kit for a few days.
Do not expose the hearing aid to extreme temperatures or allow
prolonged exposure to sunlight.
Do not drop your hearing aids or knock them against hard surfaces.
Precautions
for hearing aid
The product’s maximum output sound pressure level is under the product
software control, which ensures the end user cannot be exposed to sound
pressure levels higher than 132 dB, even in the event of device failure.
Do not wear your hearing aids during X-ray, MR scans, CT scans,
short-wave diathermy, or similar radiation treatments.
Please take off your hearing aids before you go into high electrical
fields or strong magnetic fields and leave your hearing aids outside.
(Such as transformer substation or power stations).
