Introduction
This guide is intended for Hearing Care Professionals. It
provides important information on hearing in󰘵ruments with
permanently built‑in power cells (lithium‑ion batteries).
CAUTION
It is important to read this guide, the user guide and
the safety manual thoroughly. Follow the safety
information to avoid damage or injury.

4
Before and after 󰄈tting
You have to prepare the hearing in󰘵ruments before you
can 󰘵art 󰘰tting.
Assembling
XA power cell is in󰘵alled in every hearing in󰘵rument on
delivery. There is no need to insert a battery.
XAttach the suitable receiver unit and
a suitable ear piece to the hearing
in󰘵ruments. The procedure is the
same as for any other of our RIC
hearing in󰘵ruments.
Activating
Before 󰘰r󰘵 use or 󰘰r󰘵 󰘰tting you have to activate the
hearing in󰘵ruments by putting them into the charger.
Wait until the 󰘰r󰘵 orange LED lights up.
Note:
● Hearing in󰘵ruments that are activated and not used
may discharge fa󰘵er than hearing in󰘵ruments that
have not been activated. Only activate the hearing
in󰘵ruments before 󰘰r󰘵 use or 󰘰r󰘵 󰘰tting.

5
Charging
The hearing in󰘵ruments are pre-charged on delivery.
They should have sufficient power for a 󰘰r󰘵 󰘰tting
session.
We recommend to fully charge the hearing in󰘵ruments
before 󰘰r󰘵 󰘰tting and handover to the client. A full
charging cycle takes approximately 4 hours.
Follow the operating conditions in both the hearing
in󰘵rument's and the charger's user guide.
Connecting
You can either 󰘰t the hearing in󰘵ruments wirelessly with
ConnexxLink or use the CS44 connection beneath the
push button:
XUse the included tool to lift
the push button.
Do not use sharp tools.
XPlug the CS44 cable as
shown in the picture.

6
Noting the serial number
You can 󰘰nd the hearing in󰘵rument's
serial number beneath the push
button, next to the CS44 connection.
Disconnecting
Depending on the charging 󰘵atus, the hearing
in󰘵ruments may switch o󰘯 after being disconnected
from the programming device. This safety feature avoids
deep‑discharge of the power cell.
To turn the hearing in󰘵ruments back on:
XPut them into the powered charger for a moment.
After removal from the charger the hearing in󰘵ruments
are automatically turned on.
XOr press the push button for several seconds.

7
Replacing the housing
NOTICE
XThis maintenance task mu󰘵 be performed by
the Hearing Care Professional.
Disassembling
XRemove the receiver unit and the axles.
XInsert the included tool into the front end of the hearing
in󰘵rument and detach the bottom housing.
You may feel some resi󰘵ance since the hearing
in󰘵rument sits 󰘰rmly in the bottom housing.

8
XUse the included tool to
remove the top housing.
Do not use sharp tools.
XTo remove the push button, 󰘰r󰘵 remove the axle then
lift the push button.

9
Assembling
XPlace the push button on the in󰘵rument and insert the
axle.
XIn󰘵all the top housing. Ensure that on both sides of
the hearing in󰘵rument the notches of the top housing
match the marked lines.
The top housing clicks noticeably in place.
XIn󰘵all the bottom housing from back 󰘰r󰘵, then push in
the front.

10
XAttach the axles. Note
the di󰘯erent lengths and
diameters of the axles.
XCheck the joint between top and bottom housing. It
mu󰘵 be even and very narrow.
If it is uneven or wide, the silicone wrapper may not sit
correctly. Disassemble the hearing in󰘵rument again
and improve the position of the silicone wrapper.
XAttach the receiver unit.

11
Important safety information
This section contains important safety information
regarding the power cell. For more safety information,
refer to the safety manual and the user guide supplied
with the hearing in󰘵ruments.
NOTICE
XMaintenance tasks mu󰘵 be performed by the
Hearing Care Professional.
General warnings
WARNING
A power cell (lithium‑ion rechargeable battery) is
permanently built into your hearing in󰘵rument.
Incorrect use of the power cell or the hearing
in󰘵rument can cause the power cell to bur󰘵.
Risk of injury, 󰘰re or explosion!
XFollow the safety in󰘵ructions for power cells in
this section.
Do not use the power cell in explosive atmospheres.
Keep each power cell sealed in the original packaging
until it is ready to be used.
Do not use power cells that are deformed or obviously
damaged.
Do not use power cells when their performance after
charging reduces considerably. Remove them and
dispose of them.

12
Avoid short circuiting of power cells: Power cells removed
from their packaging should not touch each other.
Handle the power cells with great care:
● Do not drop or damage them (e.g. crush, pierce or
open them).
● Protect them from moi󰘵ure and do not immerse them
in water.
● Protect them from extreme heat and sunlight.
Store the power cells in a cool, dry place with good
ventilation.
Keep the power cells away from food󰘵u󰘯s.
Keep the power cells out of reach of children.
Do not place the power cells in your mouth and do not
swallow them.
Do not deep‑discharge the power cells.
Observe the operating, transport and 󰘵orage
conditions in the hearing in󰘵rument's user guide.
Disposal
XDo not dispose of power cells or hearing in󰘵ruments
in 󰘰re or water.
XAvoid short circuiting of power cells: Prior to disposal,
enclose each power cell in a battery container or cover
the terminals.

Further information
Storage periods
Unused power cells and hearing in󰘵ruments loose their
charge. Observe the following 󰘵orage periods to avoid
deep‑discharge:
● Power cells and hearing in󰘵ruments that have not
been activated or used can be
󰘵ored up to 15 months after
production date. The production
date is printed on the power cell:
Day (DD), month (MM) and la󰘵
digit of the year (Y) of production
is printed on the power cell.
Example: 21056XX = 21󰘵 of May 2016.
● Once a power cell is activated, in order for it to remain
in good condition it needs to be charged at lea󰘵 every
6 months.
