Listening programs
Your hearing aid may be provided with up to three lis-
tening programs intended for specific listening situa-
tions .
At the front of this booklet your hearing care profes-
sional can list the listening programs that are available
in your hearing aid . If your needs change over time, the
combination of listening programs can be altered . You
can choose from the following programs:
Master:
Standard program .
Acclimatisation:
Has the same features as the Master
program, but provides slightly less amplification .
Music:
For listening to music .
TV:
For listening to the TV .
Comfort:
Attenuates background noise .
Audibility Extender:
Makes high-frequency sounds
audible .
T:
In this program you listen via the telecoil (T) and not
via the hearing aid microphone (M) . The telecoil is used
where a loop system is installed . If you activate the
telecoil program, you listen to a specific sound source
and shut out surrounding sounds .
(Please remember
that there are situations in which it is particularly
important to be able to hear the surrounding sounds
(e .g . traffic, warning signals)) .
M + T:
In this program you listen via the hearing aid
microphone (M) and the telecoil (T) .
Zen:
Makes fractal tones . The tones are adjusted ac-
cording to your hearing loss .
The Zen program may be used with amplification so
both the surrounding sounds and the fractal tones are
heard together . Or, it may be used alone (without am-
plification) in quiet when you are not required to hear
surrounding sounds .
Up to two listening programs with one Zen style each
can be programmed for Zen .
Important
Use of the different Zen programs may interfere with
hearing surrounding sounds including speech. The
programs should not be used when hearing such
sounds is important. Switch the hearing aid to a non-
Zen program in those situations.
