1

Restart your hearing aids to activate pairing mode

Turn your hearing aids off and then on again.

  • For hearing aids with disposable batteries, open the battery drawers and then close them.
  • For rechargeable hearing aids, put them in the charger and then take them out again.
2

Place your hearing aids on the Philips HearLink TV Adapter

Two flashing blue lights indicate pairing is in process. Pairing can take up to 60 seconds.

Wait until the lights show steady blue. This indicates pairing is complete.

The Philips HearLink TV Adapter can be paired with as many hearing aids as you like.

3

Activate the TV program in your hearing aids

Once a Philips HearLink TV Adapter has been paired with your hearing aids, it will be available as a program in your hearing aids.

Use the program switch on your hearing aids to change program, or use the Philips HearLink 2 app or Philips Remote Control.

4

Adjust the TV volume in your hearing aids

Use the volume control on your hearing aids to adjust the TV volume level in both hearing aids. You can also use the Philips HearLink 2 app or Philips Remote Control.

The TV volume in the hearing aids is normally not affected by volume adjustments made with the TV’s remote control.

5

Stop hearing the TV’s sound when you’re finished

To stop the sound from the TV, simply change to another desired program in your hearing aids.

You can turn off your Philips HearLink TV Adapter when you are finished watching TV. Your Philips HearLink TV Adapter will remember the pairing to your hearing aids when you turn it on again.

How to unpair

To clear pairings, press and hold the red button on your Philips HearLink TV Adapter for five seconds.

The lights on the front will fade blue to indicate there are no pairings.
