How to pair SoundClip-A with your hearing aids

With SoundClip-A, you can make your hearing aids into a wireless stereo headset, or give your SoundClip-A to another person and use it as a microphone to transmit their voice to your hearing aids. It also allows you to connect your hearing aids to Bluetooth® devices such as computers.

For some phones and devices, a SoundClip-A is necessary to stream music and audio to your hearing aids.

Before you start

If you want to use your hearing aids with both your SoundClip-A and your phone, you need to pair your hearing aids with both devices.
