Thank you....

.... for choosing a Widex hearing aid.

Your hearing aid is a sophisticated instrument that can

be adjusted to your requirements in consultation with

your hearing care professional.

All illustrations in this booklet

show a right-ear hearing aid.

We hope you will be pleased with your new Widex

hearing aid.

Important

Your hearing aid, ear-set and accessories may not look

exactly as illustrated in this booklet. We also reserve the

right to make any changes considered necessary.

General

Right/left identification

If you wear hearing aids on both ears, it is a good idea

to ask your hearing care professional to put color marks

on the hearing aids (red mark = right and blue mark =

left).

The arrow shows the position of the

identification mark.

Function signals

Your hearing aid may be set to produce a signal to indi-

cate the use of certain functions. The signal can be a

spoken message or tones adjusted by the hearing care

professional in consultation with you. The signal can

also be deactivated.

The battery

We recommend zinc-air batteries. Use a size 10 bat-

tery for your hearing aid.

To obtain replacement batteries, please consult your

hearing care professional. It is important to take note of

the expiration date and the recommendations regard-

ing disposal of used batteries on the battery pack.

Inserting the battery

Before inserting a new battery in the

hearing aid, remember to remove the

adhesive tab. Once the tab has been

removed, the battery will start func-

tioning after a few seconds. Do not

use batteries on which there is a sticky residue from the

tab or other unwanted substance.

When changing battery, it is a good idea to hold the

hearing aid over a table.

General

1. Use the nail grip to open the battery drawer. Do not

press the battery drawer beyond the open position.

2. Place the battery in the drawer so that the plus (+)

sign on the battery is facing in the direction indicat-

ed by the plus (+) sign printed on the round battery

holder (see the long arrow). You can use the provid-

ed battery magnet to steer the battery into place.

If the battery drawer does not close easily, the battery

is incorrectly inserted.

Always place the battery in the actual battery drawer

as illustrated and not in the open space inside the hear-

ing aid.

Removing the battery

1. Open the battery drawer as previously described.

Place the hearing aid on the provided cloth on a

clean, plane surface and turn it as illustrated.

2. Supporting the drawer with your finger, use the

provided battery magnet to push the battery out of

the battery drawer from the minus side.

General

Low battery indication

In the standard setting the hearing aid will produce a

spoken message when the battery is nearly exhausted

(see page 9). If the setting with tone indication has

been chosen, four beep-tones will be produced. Once

the battery is totally exhausted, the hearing aid will be

completely silent. We recommend that you always

have a spare battery with you.

Never leave an exhausted battery in the hearing aid.

Exhausted batteries may leak, damaging the hearing

aid.

Important

Your hearing aid may stop functioning, for instance if

the battery is exhausted. You should be aware of this

possibility, in particular when you are in traffic or are

otherwise dependent on warning signals.

Battery drawer without a nail grip

The hearing aid may be provided

with a battery drawer without a

nail grip, which means that you

need a tool to open the battery

drawer. This type of drawer can be

a good choice if the hearing aid is

worn by a child. A special tool for

opening the drawer will be includ-

ed with this drawer.

The battery drawer is opened as illus-

trated.

General

Turning the hearing aid on and off

The battery drawer of your hearing aid also functions

as the on/off switch.

1. Close the battery drawer to turn on the hearing aid.

If you have just turned off the hearing aid, wait at

least three seconds before turning it on again.

2. Open the battery drawer to turn off the hearing aid.

In the standard setting a spoken message will indicate

that the hearing aid has been switched on (see page 9).

Please remember to turn off the hearing aid when it is

not in use. Remove the battery if the hearing aid will

not be used for several days.

Automatic volume adjustment

The hearing aid volume is adjusted automatically in ac-

cordance with your sound environment.

Important

If the volume in your hearing aid is generally too loud

or too weak, or if the reproduced sounds are distorted,

or if you would like any further information, consult

your hearing care professional.

16 17

General

Listening programs

Your hearing aid may be provided with up to three lis-

tening programs intended for specific listening situa-

tions.

At the front of this booklet your hearing care profes-

sional can list the listening programs that are available

in your hearing aid. If your needs change over time, the

combination of listening programs can be altered. You

can choose from the following programs:

Master: Standard program

Acclimatization: Has the same features as the Master

program, but provides slightly less amplification.

Music: For listening to music.

TV: For listening to the TV.

Comfort: Attenuates background noise.

Audibility Extender: Makes high-frequency sounds

audible.

Switching between the listening

programs

If your hearing aid model is provided

with a program button, you can

switch between the listening pro-

grams by pressing this button. Each

time you use the program button, a

click is produced unless this function has been dis-

abled. A spoken message will indicate your choice of

program.

If you have chosen the tone indication, beep-tones will

tell you which program you have chosen:

• Program 1: One short beep

• Program 2: Two short beeps

• Program 3: Three short beeps

Hearing aid with an earmold

Remote control

Some hearing aid models may be pro-

vided with a remote control. These hear-

ing aids have no program button. If your

hearing aid has a remote control, please

refer to the user’s instructions for the re-

mote control.

Using a telephone

When using a telephone, we recom-

mend that you hold the telephone

against your head at an angle above

your ear, rather than directly against

the ear. If the sound is not optimal,

try moving the telephone earpiece

to a slightly different position.

Hearing aid with an earmold

The ear-set consists of the following parts:

1. Earhook

2. Tubing

3. Earmold

3a. Sound bore

3b. Vent
