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.

Unless otherwise stated, the

same principles apply to the left

ear.

We hope you will be pleased with your new Widex

hearing aid.

Important

Please read this booklet carefully before you start

using your hearing aid.

The hearing aid

1. Microphone openings, where the sound enters the

hearing aid

2. Volume control for fine tuning of volume is

available on some models

3. Program button

4. On/off function, which is integrated into the

battery compartment cover

5. Nail grip on the battery compartment cover for

easy opening

6. Sound outlet, through which the amplified sound

from the hearing aid reaches your ear

7. Widex wax guard

8. Relief vent for ventilation of the ear canal. (Not in

all models).

Right/left identification

If you are wearing hearing aids in both ears, it is easy

to tell them apart as the right-ear hearing aid has a red

Widex logo and the left-ear hearing aid a blue.

The arrow shows the position of the

logo.

The battery

We recommend Zinc Air batteries. Use a size 312 bat-

tery for your hearing aid.

To obtain replacement batteries, please consult your

hearing care professional. It is important to take note of

the expiry date and the recommendations regarding dis-

posal of used batteries on the battery pack. The battery

life will depend on a number of factors, such as the set-

ting of your hearing aid, how many hours you use it daily

and the listening environments in which you use it.

Inserting the battery

Before inserting a new battery in the

hearing aid, remember to remove

the adhesive tab on the battery.

Once the tab has been removed,

the battery will start functioning

after a few seconds. Do not use bat-

teries on which there is a sticky resi-

due from the tab or other unwanted

substance.

1. Use the nail grip to push the battery compartment

cover downwards and open the cover. Do not press

the battery compartment cover beyond the open

position.

2. Place the battery so that the plus (+) sign of the

battery faces upwards.

3. You can use the provided battery magnet to steer

the battery into place.

If the battery compartment cover does not close easily,

the battery is incorrectly inserted.

1. 2. 3.

Low battery indication

If you hear four rapid beep-tones while wearing your

hearing aid, it is an indication that the battery is nearly

exhausted. Once the battery is totally exhausted, the

hearing aid will be completely silent. Exactly how long

the hearing aid will function after the low battery indi-

cation varies from one case to another. We recommend

that you always have a spare battery with you.

If you wish to have the beep-tone function disabled,

please consult your hearing care professional.

Never leave an exhausted battery in the hearing aid.

Exhausted batteries may leak, damaging the hearing

aid. When changing battery, it is a good idea to hold

the hearing aid over a table.

Turning the hearing aid on and off

The battery compartment cover of your hearing aid

also functions as the on/off switch.

1. Close the battery compartment cover and push it

upwards to turn the hearing aid on. If you have just

turned off the hearing aid, wait at least three

seconds before turning it on again.

2. Push the battery compartment cover downwards to

turn the hearing aid off.

The hearing aid can be set to produce a beep-tone

when turned on.

Please remember to switch the hearing aid off when it

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

not be used for several days.
