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 RC3-2 remote control. RC3-2 Your RC3-2 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 RC3-2 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. • You can adjust the volume and choose programs for a CIC hearing aid. Your RC3-2 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. 4. 3.+4. 1. 2. 6. 5. 1. Volume control. The [+] and [–] keys are used for volume adjustment. • You can operate the right and the left hearing aid separately, or simultaneously. 2. Program selection. The [] [] keys are used for program selection. Your RC3-2 can operate a maximum of five programs. The battery 3. On/off function. The [(•)] key is used to turn on the remote control. The [(•)] key also sets the remote control to the initial setting, P1 V9 (program 1, volume 9), or switches between R (right hearing aid) and L (left hearing aid) if you have two hearing aids. Battery type The recommended battery type for your RC3-2 remote control is: 4. Display. This shows the currently selected program (P), volume (V), the remote control’s battery level, alarm and right/left (R/L). The numbers in the left side of the display show the settings for your left hearing aid, and the numbers in the right side of the display show the settings for your right hearing aid. 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. Lithium CR 2032 Your RC3-2 uses two CR2032 batteries. 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 RC3-2 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 RC3-2 remote control is turned on when the [(•)] key is pressed for approximately ½ second. It will automatically turn off after 10 seconds if not being used. Your hearing care professional can help you select another time-out setting, if required.

If you want the display to show the program/volume again, press the [(•)] key and hold it down while pressing the [] key. With proper care, your RC3-2 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: When the alarm starts, the letters AL and the small bell will be displayed alternately, and the hearing aid will beep. The beeps are repeated approximately every ½ minute and the bell continues to blink until you turn off the alarm. • Do not expose it to extreme temperatures or high humidity. To turn off the alarm, hold the [(•)] key down for ½ second. • Clean the remote control with a soft cloth. Never wash your remote control with water, cleaning solutions or other liquids. 34 35 • 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. • Never try to open or repair your remote control yourself. 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 RC3-2 remote control is not certified for use in mines or other areas with explosive gases. 36 • 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. 37 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 RC3-2: If your RC3-2 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. • Clip version of the battery cover • Case for the remote control • Carrying strap for the clip version of the battery 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.
