Frequently Asked Questions: Starkey Genesis AI 24 RIC RT

1. What does the “RT” stand for in the Genesis AI 24 RIC RT ?

The “RT” stands for Rechargeable and Telecoil.

• Rechargeable: It features a built-in Lithium-ion battery that eliminates the need for disposable batteries.

• Telecoil: This is a small copper wire inside the device that allows you to connect directly to sound systems in public places like theaters, churches, and airports that have “loop systems,” providing crystal clear audio without background noise.

2. How long is the battery life on a single charge?

The Genesis AI 24 RIC RT offers the best battery life in the industry. On a full charge, you can get up to 51 hours of continuous use. Even if you stream audio from your phone for several hours, the battery will easily last over 45 hours, making it perfect for long travel days.

3. Is the Genesis AI 24 RIC RT waterproof?

Yes, it is designed for extreme durability. It features Pro8 HydraShield™ technology and carries an IP68+ rating. This means the internal components are coated to resist water, sweat, and dust. It can even be submerged in up to 1 meter of water without being damaged, though it is not recommended for swimming.

4. How does the AI technology help me hear better in noise?

The G2 Neuro Processor inside the device acts like a second brain. It processes the environment 80 million times per hour. Using 24 channels, it can pinpoint a person speaking in front of you and automatically lower the volume of the noisy air conditioner or crowd noise behind you.

5. Can I answer phone calls hands-free with this model?

Yes! If you have a compatible iPhone or Android device, you can stream your phone calls directly to your hearing aids. You can hear the caller’s voice in both ears, providing a much clearer conversation than holding a phone to your ear.

6. What is the “Fall Alert” feature, and is it reliable?

The device contains 3D sensors (accelerometers) that can detect the specific motion of a fall. If a fall is detected, the My Starkey App will automatically send an alert and your GPS location to your emergency contacts. This provides peace of mind for both the user and their family members.

7. What is Edge Mode+ and when should I use it?

Edge Mode+ is a premium feature available in the 24-series. When you are in a very difficult listening environment, like a loud party, you can activate it with a tap in the app. The AI performs an instant scan and applies a unique setting to that specific room to maximize speech clarity.

8. How much time does it take to fully charge? Genesis AI 24 RIC RT

A full charge takes approximately 3.5 hours. However, it also supports “Turbo Charging”—just 7 minutes in the charger will give you about 3 hours of usage time if you are in a hurry.

9. Can I adjust the settings myself without a doctor?

Yes, the My Starkey App gives you a lot of control. You can adjust the volume, change between pre-set programs (like “Music” or “Car”), and even use an equalizer to adjust the Bass and Treble according to your preference.

10. Is this model suitable for severe hearing loss?

Yes. The RIC RT is very powerful. Depending on the “receiver” (speaker) attached to it, it can cover everything from mild to severe-to-profound hearing loss. Your audiologist can simply swap the receiver to match your specific level of hearing loss.
