We hope you will be pleased with the remote control for your Widex hearing aid. We have included
these user’s instructions to explain how your remote
control should be operated. We recommend that
you read the entire booklet to get full satisfaction
from your new RC3-1 remote control.
RC3-1
Your RC3-1 remote control is an accessory for your
hearing aid. You can easily operate your hearing aid
without the remote control; it is just an alternative
way of operating your hearing aid. The advantages of
a Widex RC3-1 remote control are:
• Unlike the buttons on your hearing aid when it
is placed in/on the ear, you can easily see the keys
on the remote control.
• The larger keys on the remote control are easier to
manipulate than the small buttons on the hearing
aid.
• The remote control enables you to operate your
hearing aid discreetly, e.g. from your pocket or
handbag.
Your RC3-1 remote control is a small computer that
contains data for the different hearing aid settings.
It also contains a radio transmitter, which sends
messages to the hearing aid. The remote control and
hearing aid do not need to be in view of each other.
The operating range is approximately 1 meter.

• You can adjust the volume and choose programs
for a CIC hearing aid.
• You can adjust the volume (increase/decrease) of
both aids simultaneously.
The battery
1. Volume control. The [+] and [–] keys are used for
volume adjustment.
2. Program selection. The [1], [2] and [3] keys are
used for program selection. Your RC3-1 can operate a maximum of three programs.
3. On/off function. The [1] key is used to turn on
the remote control. The [1] key also sets the remote control to the initial setting: P1 V9 (program 1, volume 9).
4. Display. This shows the currently selected program (P), volume (V) and the remote control’s
battery level.
Battery type
The recommended battery type for your RC3-1 remote control is:
Lithium CR 2032
Your RC3-1 uses two CR2032 batteries.
To obtain replacement batteries, please consult your
hearing care professional. Please note the expiration
date and the recommendations regarding disposal
of used batteries on the battery pack. The battery
life will depend on how much you use your remote
control.
5. Transparent key guard. With the cover closed,
the risk of accidental key-presses is reduced. The
key guard can be flipped open to make the remote
control easier to hold. The keys are then higher
and easier to feel.
6. Battery cover.
Turning the remote control on and off
Inserting the batteries
The plus (+) sign on the batteries for your RC3-1
must face upwards when placed in the battery compartment.
Changing the batteries
Always change both batteries at the same time. The
display shows the battery level of the remote control.
The batteries need to be changed when this
symbol is continuously displayed. It is recommended to change both batteries at the
same time.
10
The RC3-1 remote control is turned on when the
[1] key is pressed for approximately ½ second. It will
automatically turn off after 15 seconds if not being
used. Your hearing care professional can help you
select another time-out setting, if required.
Initial setting
When your RC3-1 is turned on, you can set the instrument to the initial setting, P1 V9 (program 1,
volume 9), by pressing the [1] key for approximately
2 seconds.
11
The volume
The [+] [–] keys allow you to adjust the volume in 13 steps. The
minimum level is 0, at which level the hearing aid is completely
silent, and the maximum level
is 13. The initial volume setting
used as standard is 9, and this
is always the volume setting to
which the remote control reverts.
If, for example, you have selected listening program
2 and volume level 6, and then change to another
listening program, the volume level will automatically change to 9.
Adjusting the volume if you only have one hearing
aid
To start the remote control, press
the [1] key for approximately ½
second. The initial setting, P1 V9
(program 1, volume 9), should
now be displayed. Use the [+]
[–] keys to adjust the volume
as required. The remote control
automatically turns off after approximately 15 seconds.
You can adjust the volume one step at a time by single key presses, or you can hold the [+] or [–] key
down until the required volume has been reached.
12
13
Adjusting the volume if you have two hearing aids
To start the remote control, press
the [1] key for approximately ½
second. The initial setting, P1 V9
(program 1, volume 9), should
now be displayed. Use the [+] [–]
keys to adjust the volume as required. Your choice will then apply to both of your hearing aids.
The remote control automatically
turns off after approximately 15
seconds.
Mute
You can also use your RC3-1 to mute your hearing
aid completely.
14
15
Using the mute function if you only have one
hearing aid
To start the remote control, press
the [1] key for approximately ½
second. The initial setting, P1 V9
(program 1, volume 9), will now
be displayed. Then press and hold
down the [1] key while pressing
the [–] key. The number 0 will be
displayed next to V. To turn up
the volume again, press the [+]
key. This will reset the volume to
the initial setting (9).
Listening programs
Using the mute function if you have two hearing
aids
To start the remote control, press
the [1] key for approximately ½
second. The initial setting, P1 V9
(program 1, volume 9), should
now be displayed. Then press
and hold down the [1] key while
pressing the [–] key. The number
0 will be displayed next to V. This
value applies to both hearing
aids.
With your RC3-1 remote control, you can choose up to three
listening programs. Together
with your hearing care professional you should have established which programs are of use
to you. If your needs change over
time, the combination of listening programs can be changed.
You can switch between the listening programs by
using the [1], [2] and [3] keys. The number shown
next to P (program) in the display tells you which
program you have chosen. You will also hear beeps
indicating choice of program. The beeps indicate:
Program 1: One brief beep
Program 2: Two brief beeps
Program 3: Three brief beeps
The number of beeps depends on how many programs were chosen to have in your hearing aid. You
and your hearing care professional can make a note
of the programs you have chosen in the chart on the
following page.

Caring for your remote control
Important: Please note that if you alternate between using your remote control and the controls
on your hearing aid to adjust the volume and select
listening programs, the remote control may cancel
any adjustments that have been made manually on
your hearing aid.
With proper care, your RC3-1 remote control will
give you a long life of reliable service. Here are some
things you can do to prolong the life of your remote
control:
• Treat your remote control with care. When it is
not in use, keep it in a cool, dry location where it
cannot be reached by children or pets.
• Do not expose it to extreme temperatures or high
humidity.
• Never try to open or repair your remote control
yourself.
• Clean the remote control with a soft cloth. Never
wash your remote control with water, cleaning
solutions or other liquids.
20
21
Good advice
• Do not carry your remote control with you during x-ray, MRI scans, CT scans, short-wave diathermy, or similar radiation treatments and never
place your remote control in a microwave oven.
These are some of the types of radiation that can
damage your remote control. Radiation from, for
example, room surveillance equipment, burglar
alarms and cellular telephones is weaker and will
not damage your remote control.
• The RC3-1 remote control is not certified for use
in mines or other areas with explosive gases.
22
• Please be sure to keep your remote control and its
parts and accessories out of the reach of children,
who might place them in their mouths. Also keep
batteries out of children’s reach and discard used
batteries carefully. Do not change batteries in
front of children and do not let them see where
you keep your supply.
• Never put a battery in your mouth for any reason
as you may risk swallowing it. In case of ingestion, contact your physician immediately and The
National Button Battery Ingestion Hotline at:
(202) 625-3333.
23
In case of malfunction
Accessories
The following pages include some quick advice to
follow if you experience problems. Before contacting your hearing care professional, please follow the
advice below:
The following accessories are available for your
RC3-1:
If your RC3-1 does not work, it could be because:
• You have not adequately pressed the keys. Flip
open the key guard to facilitate access to the
keys.
• Carrying strap for the clip version of the battery
• Clip version of the battery cover
• Case for the remote control
cover
• The batteries have not been inserted correctly.
Remove both batteries and reinsert them with
the (+) facing you.
• The batteries are exhausted. Change the batteries.
Clip version			
Case
• The battery in your hearing aid is exhausted.
Change the battery.
• The connection between your hearing aid(s) and

aid(s) off and on.
24
25
Carrying strap
The clip version has a built-in clip for fastening the
RC3 to your belt or waistband, and an eye in which
you can fasten the carrying strap if you want to carry
the RC3 around your neck.
Changing the battery cover
If you want to replace the standard battery cover with the clip
version, you must also replace the
small screw below the battery
cover. Once the screw has been
removed, you can mount the clip
version battery cover using the
long screw (see illustration) supplied with this cover.
Mount the battery cover by positioning it as illustrated. Now it is easy to push the cover into place.
