Setting the volume on STAGE (optional)
Your instrument has an optional volume control. Your hear-
ing instrument practioner will have chosen an optimal
volume setting for you and explain at what level that is.
In difficult situations some people can benefit for adjusting the
volume from this setting. On the MC, ITC and ITE a volume
wheel is available and can provide you with the ability to adjust
the volume to your liking. This volume wheel is not available
on CIC hearing instruments.
Use your index finger to turn the volume wheel. Turn the wheel forwards to increase and
turn it backward to decrease the volume.
Recognising left and right instruments
Your hearing instrument is custom-made to fit your ear. Therefore, right and left instru-
ments differ in shape.
Your hearing instrument is marked with either a left or right indication:
• A left instrument has a blue wax guard or blue dot;
• A right instrument has a red wax guard or red dot.
This is easy to remember:
R
ed =
R
ight.
The colour dot must point upwards on the CIC and on MC instruments.
Do not swap your hearing instruments. Please pay attention to this during cleaning,
storing, and inserting.
