Pair with hearing aids
Remote Control is a personal device intended to be used with one set
of hearing aids. Remote Control can operate up to two hearing aids at a
time after pairing.
Before Remote Control can be used with your hearing aids, the devices
need to be paired.
You can choose to pair Remote Control with either two hearing aids at
the same time or with one hearing aid at a time. You need to repeat the
pairing process if you choose to pair your hearing aids one at a time.
In the next pages, the example shows the pairing of hearing aids.
