Ask your hearing care professional for more information. Operating your Hearing Instrument with the Remote Control Your hearing instruments can be operated by using the buttons on your remote control. If you have hearing instruments fitted to both ears, the remote control will adjust both at the same time. Operating Distance With the remote control, you can operate your hearing instrument from a distance of up to 1 meter (about the length of your arm). A direct line of sight between the remote control and your hearing instruments is not required. Lock Switch Your remote control is equipped with a lock switch to prevent accidental operation. • Position the switch to “unlock” with the green dot visible. Your remote control is ready for use. (A) • Position the switch to “lock” with the green dot hidden. Your remote control buttons are deactivated. (B) Unlocked = Green dot visible Locked = Green dot hidden Volume Control Program Cycle Button The volume of your hearing instruments may be adjusted as follows: To cycle through the hearing instrument programs with the remote control, press the “●” button. Each push will advance the hearing instruments to the next program in the cycle. Increase volume Decrease volume Press “+” to increase volume (louder) Press “–” to decrease volume (softer) Program Cycle Button Favorite Button The remote control is equipped with a Favorite Button. By pressing this button, the remote control directs the hearing instruments to a pre-determined “favorite” setting. Favorite Button The function of the Favorite Button has been programmed by your Hearing Care Professional. Press «✱» button to directly access your favorite function. 10 Status Light The status light indicates remote control operation. It will blink after each button press. Two possibilities will be seen. Red blinking indicates that the remote control is locked. Green blinking indicates that the remote control is unlocked and has sent a command to your hearing instruments. Status light If the light does not blink after a button is pressed, the battery needs to be replaced. 11 Lanyard Ring For your convenience, it is possible to attach the remote control to a lanyard. In order to mount the lanyard, pull out the ring which is found near the battery compartment. Thread the cord through the ring to attach it to your remote control. 12 Care of your Remote Control • When changing the battery or cleaning the remote control, hold it over a soft surface to avoid damage if it is accidentally dropped. • Clean the remote control regularly with a dry cloth or tissue. • Avoid getting the remote control wet. • Never attempt to dry the remote control with a hairdryer, in a microwave oven or with any other heating devices. • The remote control should never be exposed to extreme heat, such as on the dashboard or in the glove box of your car. 13 Environmental Protection Help to protect the environment by not disposing of your remote control or batteries with your unsorted household waste. Please recycle your remote control and batteries or return them to your hearing care professional for disposal. Contact your hearing care professional for more information. 14 Warnings and Safety Guidelines • You should familiarize yourself completely with this booklet before using your remote control. • The remote control RC-P shall not be used in an aircraft. • A dead battery should be removed as soon as possible. • Used batteries should be returned to your battery supplier or hearing care professional. • Never dispose of batteries by burning them. There is a risk that they may explode and cause injury. • Never dispose of batteries with household waste. They can cause environmental pollution. • Never try to recharge non-rechargeable batteries. • Keep new and used batteries away from young children or persons of mental incapacity. If swallowed, seek immediate medical advice. 15 • The remote control is not approved to be operated in explosive environments. Do not use it in mines or other environments with explosive hazards. • The remote control uses digital inductive signals to transmit commands to the hearing instrument. Although extremely unlikely, concerns have been raised that this signal could interfere with medical devices such as pacemakers. • As an additional precaution, we advise pacemaker recipients not to carry and use the remote control in a breast pocket or around the neck. • Attention! The remote control is not a toy and should under no circumstances be passed on to infants or small children (under 36 month). • For security reasons the lanyard should never be tied together. Use the lanyard grip provided. 16 International warranty The Bernafon Remote Control is covered by a limited warranty, covering defects in materials and workmanship, for a period of 12 months from the date of delivery. This warranty covers the remote control itself, but not accessories such as batteries. This warranty becomes invalid if a defect is a result of misuse or maltreatment. This warranty is void if non-authorized personnel have repaired the remote control.
