OPERATING YOUR HEARING INSTRUMENT-
PROGRAMMABLE FEATURES

Volume control alert tones
Your hearing instrument may be programmed to inform you
of changes to volume. You may hear soft beeps each time
you change the volume and a three beep warning when
the volume limit has been reached. Once the maximum or
minimum volume has been reached, further changes in that
direction will have no effect.
Program change alert tones
Your hearing instrument may be programmed to inform you
of changes to the program. The program change may be
confirmed by alert tones or beeps that correlate to the
program you are in. That means if you select Program 3,
the hearing instrument will beep 3 times.
Push button on/off
Your Siemens hearing instruments may be programmed to
allow you to turn them on and off using the program button.
To turn the instrument off using the program button, press
and hold the button for 3–5 seconds. To turn it back on, press
and hold the program button for 3–5 seconds. Please note
that after having turned the hearing instrument off using the
program button, you must wait approximately 10 seconds for
the system to reset before turning it back on again by using
the program button.
Power on delay
Your hearing instruments may be equipped with an
advanced power-on delay feature. This feature delays
sound from entering your hearing instruments when
they are first turned on so that you may insert the
instruments into your ears without experiencing
unpleasant feedback (whistling).
Low battery indicator
Your hearing instrument may be programmed to
inform you when the battery should be replaced for
best performance. You may hear an intermittent series
of beeps and/or experience low amplification power or
volume. Change the battery immediately if either of these
should occur.
