Let your hearing care practitioner fill out the following table:
Directional microphone
BTE and Power BTE can have a directional microphone function.
If you want to listen to a person in a noisy environment, the micro-
phone in these hearing instruments can help you to concentrate
on the speech. If the microphones are in the directional mode the
background noise will be suppressed. In this mode the sounds in
front of you will be enhanced, so you can hear better the speech
of the person you look at. Your hearing care practitioner can
program the device in the required modes.
