BATTERY INSERTION
The ITC hearing aid is powered by a type 312 battery. We recommend using a zinc-air type battery for the best performance. To insert a zinc-air type battery, remove the adhesive label and wait thirty seconds for the air to activate the battery. Wipe any moisture off the battery surface. Open the battery door and with the positive side up, insert the battery into the battery door.
To remove, open the battery door and lift the battery out of the battery door.
When your battery is low and needs to be replaced you will hear the low battery voice prompt. The prompt will be repeated until the battery is changed. The low battery voice prompt will be repeated every 15 – 20 minutes.
POWER & VOLUME CONTROL
After inserting the battery, close the door completely to turn the unit on. To turn the unit off, simply open the battery door partially. To help prolong battery life, open the battery door each time you remove your hearing aids.
Once the battery door is completely shut, you will hear the unit turn on. The In-The-Canal (ITC) models feature automatic volume control. The overall volume can be adjusted in the Lucid App.
INSERTING HEARING AIDS
Inserting your hearing aids for the first time can be challenging. There can be feedback (whistling) if your hearing aids are not fully inserted, so we suggest you practice inserting them without the battery until you have perfected this process.
Follow these steps to insert your hearing aid:
For ITC Hearing Aid
- Hold the hearing aid with your thumb and forefinger with the serial number facing the front portion of your ear canal.
- Gently insert the hearing aid into your ear canal, rotating it slightly to ensure proper placement. When positioned correctly the hearing aid is barely visible.
To remove the aid, grasp the outer edges with your thumb and forefinger and gently pull the instrument from the ear canal.
Program & Volume Control
To change programs use the Lucid Hearing App
To change volume use the Lucid Hearing App
CLEANING
The most common cause of instrument failure is wax buildup, and it is the easiest to avoid. By wiping your hearing aids with a soft, dry cloth every day and carefully removing any traces of wax and debris, you will reduce wax buildup. A brush is provided to further assist you in cleaning your instrument. It is important to keep your hearing aids as clean as possible to maintain maximum performance and durability. 
Waxstop
Removal Side 
New WaxStop Side
The WaxStop is inserted in the sound tip to prevent ear wax from damaging the hearing aid speaker. We recommend you visit your hearing specialist to replace your WaxStop. Improper replacement could result in the Waxstop coming off the tube and being lodged in the ear canal. If you would like to replace it yourself, below are the instructions for WaxStop Removal and Insertion.
WaxStop Removal: Firmly press the removal tip into WaxStop until it clicks into place. Pull WaxStop from the sound tip.
WaxStop Insertion: Insert new WaxStop into the sound tip, and pull the tool straight out. The tool will release and the WaxStop will remain in place. Press WaxStop firmly into the sound tip making certain that is fully inserted.
WaxStops can be cleaned in hot water with a mild detergent, dried thoroughly, and then reused.
