Important information

  Unitron’s tinnitus masker generates sounds 

that are used as part of your personalized 
tinnitus management program to provide 
relief from tinnitus. It should always be used 
as prescribed by your hearing healthcare 
professional.

  Good health practice requires that a person 

reporting tinnitus have a medical evaluation 
by a licensed ear physician before using 
a sound generator. The purpose of such 
an evaluation is to ensure that medically 
treatable conditions, which may be causing 
tinnitus, are identified and treated prior to 
using a sound generator.

  Unitron’s tinnitus masker is intended for 

adults 18 years of age or older who have both 
hearing loss and tinnitus.

Operating instructions

Your hearing aids can be adjusted with the use of 

an optional Unitron remote.

Remote control

The optional remote control allows you to switch 

between different listening programs, and 
change your volume or comfort-clarity settings.

a new program.
