On/Off Function
The door to the battery compartment serves as the On/Off switch for your hearing instru-
ment. When the door is fully closed, the instrument is on. To turn the instrument off, put
your fingernail under the nail grip and pull gently to open the battery door.
Tip
: To reduce battery consumption, turn the instrument off when it is not in use.
Power-on delay
Power-on delay allows you to insert the instrument in your ear without the hearing instru-
ment squealing. It delays the switch-on time by 10 seconds after closing the battery
compartment. A beep each second is presented during this time.
Stand-By Mode
Stand-by mode reduces battery consumption since only a small amount of power is
used. When in stand-by mode, the hearing instrument will not deliver sound to the ear.
If your hearing instrument has a Memory Selector, you can put the instrument into stand-
by mode by holding down the Memory Selector for five seconds. You will hear a series
of beeps, indicating that the instrument is now in stand-by mode.
To return to functional mode, simply press the Memory Selector once.
Volume Control
The volume control for your hearing system is fully automatic. Your instruments have
been programmed to automatically vary amplification according to your needs.
Changing Memory Programs
Your hearing instrument may have a Memory Selector and, if so, your hearing healthcare
professional has most likely programmed multiple memories into your hearing instru-
ments. Memory programs are used to store programs for listening comfort in the dif-
ferent listening environments you encounter most often.
Whenever the hearing instrument is turned on, Memory 1 is automatically activated. Me-
mories can then be selected by pushing the Memory Selector button on the instrument.
Your hearing instrument may have up to 3 programs. Special tones will indicate which
memory has been activated. One tone will sound when Memory 1 is activated, two
tones will sound when Memory 2 is activated, etc. Memories are always activated in
sequence, for example, with three memories: 1 to 2, 2 to 3, 3 to 1. Consult your hearing
healthcare professional if the memory programs in your hearing instruments need to be
reconfigured.
