7.5.2  Push button

Your hearing aid has a push button allowing you to use up to four different listen-
ing programmes. The list on page 2 tells which programs have been enabled.

1.  Tap the push button to switch between programmes.
2.  You will then hear one or more beeps. The number of beeps indicates which 

programme you have selected (one beep = programme one, two beeps = 
programme two, etc.).

3.  When you turn the hearing aids off and then back on, they always return to 

the default setting (programme one and preset volume).

i

NOTE:

 If you have two hearing aids with the Synchronised Push Button enabled, programme 

changes to one hearing aid automatically repeat in the second hearing aid. When you change a 
programme in one hearing aid, it responds with one or more beeps. The same number of confir-
mation beeps in the second aid follow.

8  Telephone use

Your hearing aid allows you to use the telephone as you normally do. However, finding the optimal posi-
tion for your telephone may require practice. One or more of the following suggestions may be helpful:

1.  Hold the telephone up to your ear.
2.  Hold the telephone towards the top of the ear (closer to where the 

microphones are).

3.  If whistling occurs, it may take a few seconds of holding the telephone 

in the same position before the hearing aid eliminates the feedback.

4.  Whistling may stop by holding the telephone slightly away from the ear.

i

NOTE:

 Depending on your individual needs, your hearing care profes-

sional may activate a programme specifically for telephone use.
