To turn your device on:
Install a battery and close the door. The
device is now activated. There will be
a 3 second delay to allow for inser-
tion without feedback. The device will
always default to Memory 1 when the
door is opened.
To turn your device off:
Open the battery door so that the bat-
tery is no longer making contact with
the device. If you hear a high pitched squealing sound coming from the
device, ensure that the device is fully seated in the ear.
Memory Selection:
Push the button with the tip of your finger to
change listening situations. The number of “beeps” that will follow will
indicate the current memory selected (e.g. one beep=Memory one, two
beeps=Memory 2, etc.). Change the memory to meet the needs of your lis-
tening environment. Memory 1 is the lowest volume setting and Memory 4
is the loudest.

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO PROSPECTIVE HEARING AID USERS
Good health practice requires that a person with a hearing loss have a
medical evaluation by a licensed physician (preferably a physician who
specializes in diseases of the ear) before purchasing a hearing aid.
Licensed physicians who specialize in diseases of the ear are often referred
to as Otolaryngologists, Otologists, or Otorhinolaryngologists. The purpose
of a medical evaluation is to assure that all medically treatable conditions
that may affect hearing are identified and treated before the hearing aid is
purchased.
Following the medical evaluation, the physician will give you a written
statement that states that your hearing loss has been evaluated medically
and that you may be considered a candidate for a hearing aid.
The physician may refer you to an audiologist or a hearing aid dispenser, as
appropriate, for a hearing aid evaluation.
The audiologist or hearing aid dispenser will conduct a hearing aid evalu-
ation to assess your ability to hear with and without a hearing aid. The
hearing aid evaluation will enable the audiologist or dispenser to select and
fit a hearing aid to your individual needs.
