Battery information
To replace the battery, fully open the battery
door for access to the battery compartment.
Low battery warning
Two long beeps indicate the hearing aid
battery is low. After the low battery warning,
you may experience some reduction in sound
quality. This is normal and can be remedied by
inserting fresh batteries into the hearing aids.
If you are not able to hear the low battery
warning, your hearing healthcare professional
can change the pitch or loudness of the low
battery warning. If you prefer, it can be turned
off entirely.
Turning your hearing aids on and off
Your hearing aids have a three-position
battery door that acts as an off/on switch and
that allows access to the battery
compartment.
1. ON: Close the battery
door fully.
Note: It may take 5 seconds
before the hearing aid turns
on. Your hearing healthcare
provider can additionally
increase the start up delay if required.
2. OFF: Partially open the
battery door.

3. Insert the new battery into the battery
compartment with the plus (+) sign on the
battery facing the same way as the plus (+)
sign on the edge of the battery door. This
will ensure that the battery door closes
properly.
Note: If the battery is inserted incorrectly, the
hearing aid will not turn on.
4. Close the battery door.
Caring for batteries
Always discard batteries in a safe and
environmentally friendly way.
To prolong battery life, remember to turn your
hearing aids off when not in use.
Remove the batteries and keep the battery
door open while hearing aids are not in use.
This will allow internal moisture to evaporate.
Your hearing aids are designed to generate a low
battery warning every 30 minutes until you
change the batteries, but depending on the
condition of the batteries, they may die before
another low battery warning occurs. Therefore, it
is recommended that the batteries are replaced
as soon as possible once you hear the low
battery warning.
Replacing the battery
1. Gently swing out the battery door with
your fingernail.
2. Grasp the battery with your thumb and
index finger and remove.

6. Make notes at the back of this booklet,
write down difficult situations and describe
what any unpleasant noises were like. This
information will help your hearing
healthcare professional to fine-tune the
devices better for you.
7. Involve your family and friends in this
familiarization period. For example, ask
someone to set the television to a
comfortable volume.
8. When you are beginning to get used to
wearing the hearing aids, wear them in
more difficult listening environments such
as the office, at parties or in restaurants.
This can be difficult even for people who
can hear normally. Give yourself time to
regain your ability to hear in these difficult
situations.
9. Make your hearing aids part of your
everyday life and be patient with yourself
until you have retrained yourself to
interpret the sounds correctly.
Tips for wearing hearing aids for the
first time
1. Start in a quiet room at home first to get
used to the new sound quality. Sounds like
the ticking of a clock, the humming of the
computer, the beep of the microwave or the
rustling of clothes or paper may seem loud
to you at first, because you have not been
hearing them properly for a long time.
2. Read aloud to yourself and learn to correct
the volume of your own voice when you are
wearing the hearing aids.
3. Talk to different people and learn how to
distinguish between different sound
patterns again.
4. It will take some time before you are
completely used to your hearing aids and
can fully enjoy the benefits.
5. Wear your hearing aids for as many hours
a day as you can, and for a little longer
each day.

hearing aid it will automatically return to the
previous listening program. If DuoLink is
enabled on your hearing aids for the
automatic telephone program, both hearing
aids are synchronized and the listening
program for the opposite ear will also change
when the automatic telephone program is
activated. If the hearing aid does not switch to
the telephone program automatically when
the telephone receiver is placed in proximity,
the magnet for easy-t hearing aids should be
attached to the telephone receiver. The
magnet is designed to strengthen the
magnetic field at the ear piece of hearing aid
compatible telephones.
To affix the optional easy-t magnet:
1. Clean the telephone receiver.
Using the telephone
As telephones do not all work the same, you
may experience different results from different
phones. You can use many phones by simply
holding the receiver to your ear, without the
need to change to a dedicated telephone
program on your hearing aid. Remember to
move the handset slightly up or back to find
the position that sounds best to you.
Depending on the phone type you use, your
hearing healthcare professional might have
selected a dedicated phone program on your
hearing aids. Your hearing aid may have an
automatic telephone program (easy-t
feature), which automatically switches to a
dedicated telephone program when a
telephone receiver is brought close to one of
your hearing aids. You will hear a short
melody to indicate you are in the telephone
(easy-t) program.
When the receiver is moved away from the

Your hearing healthcare professional may
also have set up a phone program that you
can access through the push button on your
hearing aids, or through your optional remote
control.
2. Hold the magnet near the
“listening end” of your
telephone receiver and
release it. The magnet will
flip to the appropriate side
and seek the optimal position
on the telephone receiver.
3. Place the double-sided tape
in this optimal position on
the telephone receiver and
attach the magnet to the
tape .
Your hearing healthcare professional may also
set up a phone program that you can access via
the push button on your hearing aid or via your
remote control (optional).

Cleaning your hearing aids
Ear wax is natural and common. Ensuring
your hearing aids are free of ear wax is an
important step in your daily cleaning and
maintenance routine.
Using the brush that was provided with your
hearing aids, clean ear wax from your hearing
aids everyday.
Never use alcohol to clean your hearing aids.
Do not use sharp tools to dislodge ear wax.
Sticking household items into your hearing
aids can seriously damage them.
Talk to your hearing healthcare professional
about regular appointments to have the wax
removed from your hearing aids.
Caring for your hearing aids
Open the battery door when not in use.
Always remove your hearing aids when using
hair care products. The hearing aids can
become clogged and cease to function properly.
Do not wear your hearing aids in the bath or
shower or immerse them in water.
If your hearing aids do become wet, do not
attempt to dry them in an oven or microwave.
Do not adjust any controls. Open the battery
doors immediately, and allow your hearing
aids to dry naturally for 24 hours.
Protect your hearing aids from excessive heat
(hair dryer, vehicle glove box or dashboard).
Regular use of a dehumidifier, such as a Dri-
Aid kit, can help prevent corrosion and
prolong the life of your hearing aids.
Do not drop your hearing aids or knock them
against hard surfaces.

As you adjust the comfort-clarity control, your
Quantum hearing aids will gradually learn
your preferred comfort-clarity settings.
DuoLink
With DuoLink, your hearing aids wirelessly
communicate with each other. As you make a
program, comfort-clarity or volume change on
one hearing aid, the other hearing aid
automatically changes as well.
Binaural Phone

uTV, please see your user guide. For
information on how to get a uDirect or uTV
accessory, please contact your hearing
healthcare professional.
Assistive listening devices
Listening in public places
Telecoils pick up electromagnetic
energy and convert it into sound.
Your hearing aid’s telecoil option
can help you listen in public
places equipped with telecoil compatible
assistive listening devices such as a loop
system. When you see this symbol, it means
that there is loop system installed; this loop
system is compatible with your hearing aid.
Please contact your hearing healthcare
professional for more information on loop
systems.
Connecting to external audio sources
You can connect to external audio sources by
using the uDirect optional wireless accessory.

Remove your hearing aids for CT and MRI
scans or for other electromagnetic
procedures.
Special care should be exercised in
wearing hearing aids when maximum
sound pressure levels exceed 132 decibels.
There may be a risk of impairing your
remaining hearing. Speak with your
hearing healthcare professional to ensure
the maximum output of your hearing aids
is suitable for your particular hearing loss.
Easy-t magnet warnings
Be sure the magnet is securely affixed to
the telephone.
Keep loose magnets out of reach of children
and pets.
If the magnet falls into your ear, contact
your hearing healthcare professional.
If the magnet is swallowed, contact your
physician immediately.
Warnings
Hearing aids should only be used as
directed by your physician or hearing
healthcare professional.
Hearing aids will not restore normal
hearing and will not prevent or improve a
hearing impairment resulting from organic
conditions.
Do not use your hearing aids in explosion
hazard areas.
Allergic reactions to hearing aids are
unlikely. However, if you experience
itching, redness, soreness, inflammation or
a burning sensation in or around your ears,
inform your hearing healthcare
professional and contact your physician.
In the unlikely case that any parts remain
in the ear canal after the removal of the
hearing aid, contact a physician
immediately.
34 35
Precautions
The use of hearing aids is only part of
hearing rehabilitation; auditory training
and lip reading instruction may be required
as well.
In most cases, infrequent use of hearing
aids does not provide full benefit. Once
you have become accustomed to your
hearing aids, wear your hearing aids
everyday all day.
Your hearing aids use the most modern
components to provide the best possible
sound quality in every listening situation.
However, communication devices such as
digital cell phones can create interference
(a buzzing sound) in hearing aids. If you
experience interference from a cell phone
being used close by, you can minimize this
interference in a number of ways. Switch
The magnet may affect some medical
devices or electronic systems. Always keep
the magnet (or the telephone equipped
with the magnet) at least 30 cm (12”) away
from pacemakers, credit cards, floppy disks
or other magnetically sensitive devices.
Too high distortion during dialing or
phoning may mean that the phone handset
is stressed by the magnet. To avoid any
damage, please move the magnet to
another place on the telephone receiver.
Battery warnings
Never leave hearing aids or batteries where
small children and pets can reach them.
Never put hearing aids or batteries in your
mouth. If a hearing aid or battery is
swallowed, call a physician immediately.
36 37
Warning to hearing aid dispensers
(to comply with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) regulations)
A hearing aid dispenser should advise a prospective hearing aid
user to consult promptly with a licensed physician (preferably an
ear specialist) before dispensing a hearing aid if the hearing aid
dispenser determines through inquiry, actual observation, or
review of any other available information concerning the
prospective user, that the prospective user has any of the
following conditions: (i) Visible congenital or traumatic deformity
of the ear. (ii) History of active drainage from the ear within the
previous 90 days. (iii) History of sudden or rapidly progressive
hearing loss within the previous 90 days. (iv) Acute or chronic
dizziness. (v) Unilateral hearing loss of sudden or recent onset
within the previous 90 days. (vi) Audiometric air-bone gap equal
to or greater than 15 decibels at 500 hertz (Hz), 1,000 Hz, and
2,000 Hz. (vii) Visible evidence of significant cerumen
accumulation or a foreign body in the ear canal. (viii) Pain or
discomfort in the ear. Special care should be exercised in
selecting and fitting a hearing aid whose maximum sound
pressure level exceeds 132 decibels because there may be risk of
impairing the remaining hearing of the hearing aid user. [This
provision is required only for those hearing aids with a maximum
sound pressure capability greater than 132 decibels (dB).]
Important notice for prospective hearing aid users
Good health practice requires that a person with a hearing loss
have a medical evaluation by a licensed physician (preferably a
physician who specializes in diseases of the ear) before
purchasing a hearing aid.
your hearing aids to another program, turn
your head in a different direction or locate
the cell phone and move away from it.
Labeling
The serial number and year of manufacture
are located inside the battery door.
38 39
Children With Hearing Loss
In addition to seeing a physician for a medical evaluation, a child
with a hearing loss should be directed to an audiologist for
evaluation and rehabilitation since hearing loss may cause
problems in language development and the educational and
social growth of a child. An audiologist who is qualified by
training and experience to assist in the evaluation and
rehabilitation of a child with hearing loss is recommended.
Licensed physicians who specialize in diseases of the ear are
often referred to as otolaryngologists, otologists or
otorhinolaryngologists. The purpose of medical evaluation is to
assure that all medically treatable conditions that may affect
hearing are identified and treated before the hearing aid is
purchased. Following the medical evaluation, the physician will
give you a written statement that states that your hearing loss
has been medically evaluated and that you may be considered a
candidate for a hearing aid. The physician will refer you to an
audiologist or a hearing aid dispenser, as appropriate, for a
hearing aid evaluation. The audiologist or hearing aid dispenser
will conduct a hearing aid evaluation to assess your ability to
hear with and without a hearing aid. The hearing aid evaluation
will enable the audiologist or dispenser to select and fit a hearing
aid to your individual needs. If you have reservations about your
ability to adapt to amplification, you should inquire about the
availability of a trial-rental or purchase-option program. Many
hearing aid dispensers now offer programs that permit you to
wear a hearing aid for a period of time for a nominal fee after
which you may decide if you want to purchase the hearing aid.
Federal law restricts the sale of hearing aids to those individuals
who have obtained a medical evaluation from a licensed
physician. Federal law permits a fully informed adult to sign a
waiver statement declining the medical evaluation for religious or
personal beliefs that preclude consultation with a physician. The
exercise of such a waiver is not in your best health interest and
its use is strongly discouraged.
