The Easy LE Adaptor device connects USB-C enabled Android™ phones, tablets, and computers to hearing aids or other wireless audio devices using Bluetooth® LE Audio technology. It allows you to stream audio like music or podcasts and make hands-free calls with good sound quality. Ensure your hearing aids or audio device supports LE Audio. Most devices with a 3.5 mm audio jack may not be compatible.
(Please verify with your hearing care professional that the necessary firmware is installed in your hearing aids to use the Easy LE Adapter)
Pairing the Easy LE Adaptor
Step 1
Plug the Easy LE Adapter into the USB-C port of your phone, tablet or PC.
The adapter will power on and enter pairing mode (if no existing pairing is found).
Pairing mode is indicated by the LED indicator rapidly flashing blue. In this mode the Easy LE Adapter will search for LE Audio devices in a range of 6.5 feet (2 meters) that are ready to pair. If you do not see the flashing blue LED light, reset the Easy LE Adapter by inserting a thin pointed tool into the reset pin hole until the LED indicator light flashes blue.
Step 2
Restart your hearing aids via the push button or by placing them in the charger and then removing them from the charger. This will put them in pairing mode for 3 minutes.
Step 3
Wait for the hearing aids and adapter to pair.
Pairing is complete when the LED indicator changes from fast flashing blue to showing a steady blue light for 5 seconds and then powers off.
You are now ready to stream audio or make hands-free calls with the Easy LE Adapter.
Note: you can only be connected to one set of hearing aids
Tip: The Easy LE Adapter does not lose its pairing with the hearing aids when taken out of a phone, tablet or PC and plugged into a new one.
