Intended use
The FM+DEX is a battery-powered device intended to
transmit (or stream) signals to Widex hearing aids using
the wireless WidexLink technology; i.e. signals are
received, altered and transmitted to the hearing aid.
Description of device
The FM+DEX is offered in order to support Widex hear-
ing aids without DAI (direct audio input) or a telecoil.
When the FM module is attached, the user is able to
receive FM signals.
In the same way, the device can substitute for a telecoil
in hearing aids not fitted with a telecoil. The third input
possibility is the line in, which can be used to stream
music, etc., by connecting a computer or portable unit
to the device.
The FM+DEX is worn on a neck loop antenna or attached
directly to clothing using the included clip.

Charging the battery
The device uses a rechargeable battery that is charged
through the mini USB connector. When fully charged,
the battery has a capacity of approx. 10 hours of con-
tinuous use. The charger is available in four country
versions. The version you have may therefore not look
exactly as illustrated in this booklet.
