Clear Settings and Reset Device

Clear Settings and Reset Device clears all settings and patient data from a hearing aid and returns it to the default settings. Wired and wireless standard and wireless custom hearing aids can be reset. Standard hearing aids are set to averaged modeled gain and custom hearing aids are Best Fit based on the audiogram stored in the device and set the feature settings back to their original defaults. The receiver type for Evolv AI, Livio Edge AI, Livio AI, Livio, Halo iQ, Muse iQ, Halo 2, and Muse RICs is set back to their original defaults (stock or custom AP) but all other RICs are set back to stock. In addition, wireless hearing aids and their paired accessories and/or phones, if applicable, are unpaired once the reset is complete. When resetting CROS/BiCROS devices, the receiver aid is reset to a hearing aid and the transmitter remains a transmitter but is unpaired from the receiver.
