Charging and Battery Life
The Audien Atom Pro 2 features a rechargeable battery design, eliminating the need for disposable batteries. This not only provides environmental benefits but also ensures you can enjoy uninterrupted hearing without the hassle of frequent battery replacements. Your Atom Pro 2 comes with a convenient charging case that doubles as a UV sanitizer.
To charge your hearing aids, simply place them in the charging case with the contacts facing up. The case will automatically begin charging your devices. The charging process typically takes a few hours to complete. A built-in LED indicator on the case will illuminate to indicate the charging status. A solid light signifies that the devices are fully charged, while a blinking light indicates that they are still charging.
With a full charge, your Audien Atom Pro 2 hearing aids can provide up to 24 hours of continuous use. The charging case can hold up to 4 days worth of charge, allowing you to stay connected even when you’re on the go. The charging case also includes a built-in UV light that sanitizes your hearing aids while they charge, promoting hygiene and a clean listening experience.
To ensure optimal battery life, it is recommended to charge your hearing aids daily. Regular charging helps to maintain battery health and prolong the overall lifespan of your devices. Additionally, avoid exposing your hearing aids to extreme temperatures as this can negatively impact battery performance.
Ear Dome Fitting
Proper ear dome fitting is crucial for optimal sound quality and comfort when using your Audien Atom Pro 2 hearing aids. The ear domes create a seal in your ear canal, ensuring that sound is directed effectively towards your eardrum. Your Atom Pro 2 comes with a selection of ear dome sizes (small, medium, and large) to accommodate different ear canal shapes and sizes.
To determine the best ear dome size for you, start with the medium size. Gently insert the ear dome into your ear canal, ensuring that it sits comfortably and securely. If the ear dome feels too loose or too tight, try a different size. A properly fitted ear dome should feel snug but not uncomfortable. It should also create a good seal, blocking out external noise while allowing sound to pass through the hearing aid.
If you experience discomfort or difficulty hearing with a particular ear dome size, consult the Audien Hearing Support team for guidance. They can assist you in selecting the most appropriate ear dome size for your individual needs. Remember, finding the right fit is essential for maximizing the effectiveness and comfort of your Audien Atom Pro 2 hearing aids.
To remove an ear dome, gently pull it with enough force until it pops off. When attaching a new ear dome, be sure to hear a pop or click when it is securely in place. Avoid pushing the ear dome too far into the ear canal, as this can block sound.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Regular cleaning and maintenance are essential for keeping your Audien Atom Pro 2 hearing aids in optimal condition and extending their lifespan. Here’s a step-by-step guide to cleaning and maintaining your devices⁚
Daily Cleaning⁚ Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away any earwax, debris, or moisture from the hearing aid’s exterior. Be gentle and avoid using any harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Ear Dome Cleaning⁚ Remove the ear dome from the hearing aid and gently clean it with a soft brush or cloth. If necessary, you can use a mild soap and water solution to clean the ear dome, but be sure to rinse it thoroughly and dry it completely before reattaching it to the hearing aid.
Sound Tube Cleaning⁚ Use a small brush or a cleaning tool provided with your hearing aid to gently clean the sound tube, removing any accumulated earwax or debris.
UV Sanitization⁚ Utilize the included charging case, which features built-in UV sanitization. This process effectively eliminates bacteria and other microorganisms that may accumulate on the hearing aid.
Storage⁚ When not in use, store your hearing aids in a dry and clean environment, preferably in their charging case to protect them from dust, moisture, and damage.
By following these simple cleaning and maintenance steps, you can ensure that your Audien Atom Pro 2 hearing aids remain clean, functional, and provide you with clear and comfortable sound for years to come.
