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.
If your hearing aids are configured to work with
the wireless uDirect
™
or uStream streamers,
you might benefit from a Bluetooth
®
hands free
option. Refer to the uDirect or uStream user
guide for more information.
The Binaural Phone feature enables you to hold
a phone to one ear and hear the sound clearly in
both ears. No accessories are required.
Protecting 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).
• Ensure you do not twist or squeeze the tube
when your hearing aids are placed in their case.
• 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.
