uMic
uMic is a personal wireless microphone system
that lets you hear conversations better in
noisy environments, through either uStream or
uDirect.
Remote control
Your hearing aids may also come with an
optional remote control which allows you to
switch between different listening programs,
and change your volume settings.
Assistive listening devices
Listening in public places
Telecoils pick up electromagnetic energy and
convert it into sound. Your hearing aid’s telecoil
option can help you listen in public places
equipped with telecoil compatible assistive
listening devices such as a loop system.
When you see this symbol, a loop
system is present and it is compatible
with your hearing aid. Please contact your
hearing healthcare professional for more
information on loop systems.
Connecting to external audio sources
Your hearing aids may have a direct audio input
(DAI) to connect to other audio sources, such
as a stereo or television, using an FM system
or a cable. The uDirect, an optional wireless
accessory, also has a DAI jack.
When your hearing aids detect a DAI signal,
they switch to your easy-DAI program
automatically. A short melody indicates that
easy-DAI is active. When you disconnect the
DAI, your hearing aids return to the previous
program automatically.
Ask your hearing healthcare professional
for information about the DAI system and a
connector cord.
