For any problems not listed in this user guide, please contact
your hearing care professional.
Most probable cause
During Bluetooth pairing my other device is prompting for a
code, what do I have to enter?
The pairing code is required
for the initial coupling of
ComPilot II with your Bluetooth
device (“pairing”).
I hear intermittency during an audio transfer via ComPilot II.
The Bluetooth device is too
far away, or worn in a back
pocket (body shielding).
ComPilot II searches for known
devices for 2 minutes after
switching on.
A phone connected to other
devices such as a PC may
not be able to continuously
stream music.
Remedy
Enter 0000 (four zeros) when
prompted for a code..
Do not to exceed the maximum
distance (15-30 ft.) and keep
Bluetooth devices in front of
you.
After 2 minutes, ComPilot II
will stop searching and the
intermittency will stop.
When using your Bluetooth
phone as music player,
disconnect it from other
devices such as PCs.
9. Troubleshooting
47
Most probable cause Remedy
The volume of the music is too loud or too quiet. The volume of
phone conversations is not comfortable (too low or too high).
Dierent audio sources have
dierent outputs.
I have diculties understanding the phone conversation in a
noisy environment.
Your hearing aid
microphones are set too
high during the call.
The caller can hear me but I cannot hear the caller.
The call was transferred to
your phone.
To change the volume of the
phone, or any other sound
source to ComPilot II, use
the volume control of that
external device.
Reduce the hearing aid volume
by pressing the button
(see chapter 6.1).
If the sound volume over the
phone (or music) is too low
after this reduction use
the phone volume button to
increase the volume.
Make sure the call is
transferred back to ComPilot II
via the phone menu.
48
ComPilot II is no longer recognized by the phone or other
Bluetooth device to which it was previously paired.
2 minutes after not nding a
device, ComPilot II will stop
seeking devices to save power.
The devices are too far away
from each other.
ComPilot II can be paired to a
maximum of 8 dierent
Bluetooth devices. If the
internal memory is full, new
pairings may overwrite
previous pairings.
Pairing was deleted.
I am not streaming but the hearing aids keeps switching
between the Bluetooth and the normal hearing aid program.
Your phone sends sounds to
ComPilot II due to incoming
SMS or mails.
Phone key tones are switched
on.
I hear my phone’s key-press tones in my hearing aids.
The key-press tones may be
enabled on your phone.
Most probable cause
Switch ComPilot II o.
Wait until the red indicator
switches o, then turn
device on again.
Bring devices within 1 meter
range and try again.
Repeat the pairing between
ComPilot II and the Bluetooth
device which was over-
written.
Repeat the pairing between
ComPilot II and the Bluetooth
device which was deleted.
Disable the system sounds for
reminders, alarms, SMS, etc.
via your phone menu.
Switch o phone key tones via
your phone menu.
Deactivate key-press and
conrmation tones on your
phone. Please refer to the
phone’s user guide.
Remedy
9. Troubleshooting
49
Most probable cause Remedy
Every time I switch on my phone, the music player starts.
For some phones this is
normal behavior and not
initiated by ComPilot II.
Every time I get in my car the ComPilot II connection to my
phone behaves unexpectedly.
The car Bluetooth system
connects to your phone.
I accepted the incoming phone call but cannot hear the call
in my hearing aids.
Some phones, when accepting
the call through the phone
button, don‘t use ComPilot II.
The phone is ringing but the Audio indicator is not solid blue and
there is no ringing signal through the hearing aids.
Bluetooth is disabled in the
phone.
ComPilot II and your phone are
not connected to each other.
Some phones can be
congured not to start the
music player automatically.
Stop the music player via
phone menu after the phone is
connected.
Consider disconnecting the car
system from your phone.
Always accept the call
by pressing the ComPilot II
Main button.
Ensure Bluetooth is enabled
according to your phone’s user
guide.
1. Disable the Bluetooth
functionality in your phone
and turn it on again.
50
Most probable cause Remedy
ComPilot II is not paired to
the phone.
The distance is too great
between ComPilot II and the
phone.
The phone is ringing, the Audio indicator is solid blue but
there is no ringing signal through the hearing aids.
ComPilot II is out of range of
the hearing aids.
Phone is set to vibrate.
You are already on a
phone call and a second
call cannot be recognized.
2. Restart ComPilot II by
switching it o and then on.
The ComPilot II Bluetooth
functionality will be
automatically reactivated.
3. Activate ComPilot II by
selecting it in the phone’s
“Active device” menu.
4. Reduce the distance between
ComPilot II and the phone.
Follow the pairing process in
this guide.
Wear ComPilot II around your
neck. Keep distance to phone
<10 m (<30 ft).
Wear ComPilot II correctly
around your neck with both
neckloop plugs rmly plugged
in.
Enable ring tone on phone.
Hang up the rst phone call,
then accept the second call.
9. Troubleshooting
51
My phone rings but the name of the caller is not heard
acoustically.
The Caller identication
feature is not available or not
enabled on your phone.
Two phones are connected to
your ComPilot II.
Caller identication may be
switched o.
During a phone call the other party has diculty hearing me.
ComPilot II microphone
openings may be covered.
ComPilot II may not be worn
correctly.
ComPilot II may rub against
clothing.
Most probable cause
Please refer to the phone’s
user guide to check the
availability of this feature.
If two phones are connected
Caller identication is only
available on the phone that
was last paired to ComPilot II.
Please ask your hearing care
professional to enable Caller
identication on your
ComPilot II.
Make sure the microphone
openings are not covered by
part of your body, clothing
or dirt and debris.
Do not turn ComPilot II
sideways and make sure the
neckloop plugs point towards
your mouth as you speak.
Reduce movement while you
speak, or consider using the
external microphone (optional).
Remedy
52
Most probable cause Remedy
The surrounding noise may
be too loud.
ComPilot II is unresponsive or there are no light indicators when
switching On.
ComPilot II may be completely
discharged.
