Using your hearing instrument
It takes time to adjust to a new hearing instrument. How long this adjustment takes
differs from person to person. It will depend on a number of factors, such as whether you
have had a hearing instrument before and the degree of your hearing loss.
Seven easy steps to better hearing
1. In the quiet of your home
Try to accustom yourself to all the new sounds. Listen to the many background sounds
and try to identify each sound. Bear in mind that some sounds will seem different from
what you are used to. You may have to learn to identify them again. Note that in time you
will get accustomed to the sounds in your environment – if not please contact your
Hearing Care Professional.
If using the hearing instrument makes you tired, take them off for a little while and have a
rest. Gradually, you will begin to be able to listen for longer periods of time. Soon, you will
be able to wear your hearing instrument comfortably all day long.
2. Conversation with another person
Sit with someone else in a quiet room. Face each other so you can read facial expressions
easily. You may experience new speech sounds, which can seem a little disturbing in the
beginning. However, after the brain has adapted to the new speech sounds, you should
hear speech clearer.
3. Listen to radio or TV
When listening to the TV or the radio, start out by listening to news commentators since
they usually speak clearly, then try other TV programs.
If you find it difficult to listen to TV or radio, ask your Hearing Care Professional for more
information regarding the Oticon ConnectLine system* and other available accessories.
