Charging
How you can use the charger
You can use your charger in three di󰘯erent ways.
Charging via electrical outlet
When the charger is plugged in, it charges
the hearing in󰘵ruments (if they are
placed in the charger) and it charges the
integrated battery at the same time.
The front 󰘵atus LED permanently shows
the charging 󰘵atus of the charger. The
hearing in󰘵ruments' charging 󰘵atus is shown when
opening the lid and/or pushing the button.
Mobile charging
When you are mobile with no electrical outlet
available, you can 󰘵ill charge your hearing
in󰘵ruments. Energy is fed from the charger's
integrated battery into your hearing in󰘵ruments.
The charger mu󰘵 be turned on to do so.
The charging 󰘵atus of charger and hearing in󰘵ruments
is shown by pushing the button or opening the lid.

is running low. The signal will be repeated every
20 minutes. Depending on the usage of your hearing

15
Switching to 󰄋andby mode
Via remote control, you can switch your hearing
in󰘵ruments to 󰘵andby mode. This mutes the hearing
in󰘵ruments. When you leave 󰘵andby mode, the
previously used volume and hearing program are set.
Note:
■ In 󰘵andby mode, the hearing in󰘵ruments are not
turned o󰘯 completely. They draw some power.
Therefore we recommend to use 󰘵andby mode only
for a short period of time.
■ If you want to leave 󰘵andby mode, but the remote
control is not at hand: Turn your hearing in󰘵ruments
o󰘯 and on again (by shortly placing them in the
charger until one or more LEDs light up). Wait
until the 󰘵artup melody is played in your hearing
in󰘵ruments. This may take several seconds. Note
that the default volume and hearing program are set.
