GETTING STARTED

Rocker switch

 – the rocker switch is used to change between 

program settings using our exclusive QuickFit technology 
and is used to control the volume.

Battery door

 – this also serves as the On/Off switch.  Close 

the door to turn on your device. Open the door to turn off 
the device.

Ear tube & tip

 – each unit comes equipped with an ear tube 

& tip that connects to the unit’s speaker. Amplified sound 
travels through the ear tube & tip to your ear. The ear tube 
also features a retention loop to help keep the tube and tip 
in place.

Directional microphone

 – your Ascend’s directional micro-

phone can be activated to suppress background noise and 
allow for greater speech focus in noisy environments.

Programming port

 – covered by a small, black flap on the 

back of the device body, this slot is used by our engineers 
to program your device. Please do not remove the flap or 
tamper with the port.
