General Product Care

Listening Profile Adjustments

There are two listening profiles,

Low (L) and High (H).

L: LOW

(switch toward the body of the device)

• 15dB mild amplification and treble

  boost for soft sounds.

• No amplification for loud sounds.

H: HIGH

(switch away from the body of the device)

• 8dB more amplification than the N

  position, and treble boost for soft sounds.

• Mild amplification for loud sounds.

Using the Telephone

It is not necessary to remove the hearing aids when using 

the telephone. If you are comfortable holding the phone 

on or near the ear and a whistling sound does not occur, 

the hearing aids can remain in the ear during a call.
