Hearing aid operation
LED status indicator
Hearing aid connector
When your FM receiver is connected, the hearing aid will automatically detect the FM receiver and add two extra programs.
The default hearing aid program is the FM + the hearing aid
microphone program. If you need to change the setting to
listen to FM only, you can switch to the next program on the
hearing aid push button.
With the FM receiver mounted, the push button of your
hearing aid can at any time be used to switch back and forth
between standard programs and the two FM programs.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
This leaflet guides you on how to use and maintain your
FM receiver. Please read the leaflet carefully including the
Warning section. This will help you to achieve the full
benefit of your new FM receiver.
Preparing your FM system
Setting the system up requires an FM transmitter, your FM
receiver and a DAI compatible hearing aid. Connect your FM
receiver to the hearing aid (see picture 1 and 2) and switch
on the FM transmitter to activate the FM system. Your FM
receiver has no battery. It draws a small amount of power
from the hearing aid battery.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Please refer to your transmitter’s instructions for use for
details on the functionality of your specific FM system.
Attaching your FM receiver to the hearing aid
1. Open the battery drawer on the hearing aid and insert
a new battery. Insert your FM receiver (use of force is
unnecessary)
2. C
 lose the battery drawer carefully.
The FM receiver is intended as a wireless receiver and
transmitter of sound between hearing aids and the
surrounding environment, including speech and wireless
electronic audio devices.
The FM receiver is intended to be used by children older than
36 months and adults together with their hearing solution.
Introduction
If you have additional questions about the use of your FM
receiver, please contact your hearing care professional.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Please refer to your hearing aid’s instructions for use for
details on the functionality of your hearing aid.
LED
Your FM receiver has a Light Emitting Diode (LED).
When this light is on and blinking, it confirms that:
• The hearing aid battery is working
• The FM receiver is ON
• The FM receiver is receiving an FM signal
Programming the LED
Use an Amigo T30/T31 FM transmitter to program the LED
in one of two ways:
ON: Blink. The LED will blink when an FM signal is present.
OFF: The LED will remain off, even though an FM signal
is present.
Intended use
Amigo R12G2 is an FM receiver and is a part of Oticon’s Amigo
FM product family, which supports access to the teacher’s
voice in school and for example the parent’s voice when
at home.
When Oticon Opn or Siya hearing aids are in an FM program,
flight mode is activated to ensure a high quality FM signal.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Never change the hearing aid battery and never connect
the FM receiver to the hearing aid in front of infants, small
children or people with learning difficulties.
The battery drawer can be made tamper resistant
(optional). Consult your hearing care professional for
further instructions.
Channel Seek button and off function
Your FM receiver has a Channel Seek button that can change
channel and turn the receiver off.
Sleep mode
• A longer press (more than two seconds) will turn the FM
receiver off. A short melody will be played to notify you
that the FM receiver has gone into off mode
Your FM receiver has sleep mode functionality. Whenever the
FM signal disappears for more than 7 seconds, the FM receiver
will automatically “fall asleep” to conserve battery power.
A built-in signal sensor will detect any FM signal. When this
signal reappears, your FM receiver will reactivate and the
LED will be lit. Should the signal be absent for more than 90
minutes, the FM receiver will automatically drop into off
mode. It will then have to be turned on manually.
Your FM receiver only scans the channels that are in the
channel list. If no channel is receiving an FM signal, the
receiver will revert to the original channel.
In sleep mode, the hearing aid will disable the two FM
programs, but if your FM receiver detects an FM signal,
the two programs will be added automatically again.
If more than one channel with a strong FM signal is present,
it will lock on to the first one in its channel list. For a different
channel, simply press the button again.
Amigo T30/T31
Channel management
• Multi-channel (can be wirelessly programmed
with an Amigo T30/T31)
• A short press will launch a search through the pre-defined
channel list search
Your FM receiver contains a predefined list of channels, all
of which are functional. You can customize the channel list
using Amigo T30/T31. These units can also be used to
wirelessly synchronize channels with your FM receiver.
The FM receiver can be programmed to wake up in the
channel last used or any pre-specified channel. If you are not
using Amigo T30/T31 you can still change channels using the
Channel Seek button on your FM receiver.
If an Amigo T30/T31 FM transmitter is used with your
FM receiver, the following programmable features will
be available:
• LED indicator
• Manual channel pushbutton
• Assigning a name to the receiver
• Assigning an ear to the receiver
• FM-only gain
• FM+M gain
• Confirmation beep
Troubleshooting guide
Problem
No sound / no FM reception.
Solution
• Check that the hearing aid battery is inserted correctly
• Check that the FM receiver is on and correctly connected
• Check that the transmitter is on
• Press the Channel Seek button again
Problem
The FM receiver cannot be synchronized.
Solution
Synchronization takes place wirelessly, so if the FM receiver
fails to confirm (with three blinks of the LED), try to move
the transmitter closer, farther away or slightly to one side.
Then press the SYNC button on the transmitter again.
For further assistance, please contact your hearing care
professional.
