Zen program
Your hearing aid may be provided with a unique optional
listening program called Zen . It makes musical tones
(and sometimes a rushing noise) in the background .
The Zen program may be used alone (without amplifi-
cation) in quiet when you are not required to hear sur-
rounding sounds . Or, it may be used with amplification
so that both the surrounding sounds and the generated
sounds (fractal tones and noise) are heard together .
CAUTION
Use of the different Zen programs may interfere with hearing
surrounding sounds including speech . The programs should not
be used when hearing such sounds is important . Switch the
hearing aid to a non-Zen program in those situations .
CAUTION
If you perceive a decrease in loudness, tolerance of sounds,
speech not as clear, or worsening tinnitus, contact your hearing
care professional .
