Frequently Asked Questions - MOTION 501 SIEMENS

How do I change the battery of my Siemens Motion 501?

Open the battery drawer completely using a fingernail. Insert a zinc-air battery size 312 with the '+' symbol facing up. Gently close the drawer. If it is hard to close, check the battery orientation. When the battery is low, an audible signal will alert you if this function has been activated by your hearing care professional.

How do I clean my Motion 501 hearing aid?

Clean the hearing aid regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Never use water. At night, place the device in a sealed pouch with a drying capsule (drying kit). For models with LifeTube, use a cleaning wire and have the LifeTube and LifeTip replaced every 3 to 6 months by your hearing care professional.

What should I do if my hearing aid whistles?

Whistling (feedback) may be due to an incorrectly positioned dome. Reinsert the ear dome or LifeTip by pushing it gently until it is well seated. If the problem persists, reduce the volume or clean the dome. Consult your hearing care professional if necessary.

How do I use the automatic telephone program?

Hold a telephone handset to your ear; the hearing aid will automatically switch to the telephone program if the AutoPhone feature is activated. If the magnetic field is insufficient, attach the supplied AutoPhone magnet to the telephone receiver. To remove the magnet, move the handset away.

How do I switch between listening programs?

If your device has a push button, press it to go to the next program. With a toggle switch, push up for the next program, down for the previous one. You can also use the remote control. The number of programs (up to 5) is configured by your hearing care professional.

Can I adjust the volume manually?

By default, the volume is automatic. If you prefer manual adjustment, your hearing care professional can activate this option. You can then increase or decrease the volume using the toggle switch (up for +, down for -) or the remote control.

How do I use the remote control with the Motion 501?

Make sure the e2e wireless function is activated. The Siemens Tek remote control allows you to change programs, adjust volume, and connect the hearing aid to Bluetooth devices (phone, TV, etc.). Consult the remote control user guide for pairing. In case of interference, move away from the source.

What should I do if the hearing aid does not work?

First check that the device is on (battery drawer closed). If the delayed start is active, wait up to 18 seconds. Replace or recharge the battery. Make sure the battery is properly inserted and the drawer is completely closed. If nothing works, contact your hearing care professional.

How do I maintain the LifeTube and LifeTip?

Clean the LifeTube regularly with a provided cleaning wire. Check the condition of the LifeTip: it should be firmly attached and not damaged. Replace the LifeTube and LifeTip every 3 to 6 months or as soon as they are damaged. Consult your hearing care professional for replacement parts.

What precautions should I take with magnets?

Magnets (e.g., AutoPhone magnet) can interfere with pacemakers: keep a distance of at least 10 cm. Keep them away from magnetic media (floppy disks, credit cards). Use only the Siemens magnet provided. If in doubt, ask your doctor or hearing care professional.
