Do not adjust any controls. Open the battery compartment and allow your remote device to dry naturally for 24 hours.

Although unlikely, interference with medical devices such as pacemakers is possible. Interference should not occur with normal use, holding the remote comfortably in the hand, 4 inches (10 centimeters) or more from the body.
Precautions • If your Smart Control fails to operate after you have correctly inserted a new battery, contact your hearing healthcare professional. Always bring both your Smart Control and your hearing instruments for service questions. • Your Smart Control and your hearing instruments are given a unique communication code. Because of this code, your Smart Control will not affect hearing instruments worn by others.
