Good Ideas 12345 User manual

If you wear a hearing device, people assume they have to speak LOUDLY and CLEARLY. But even then, noisy
environments can cause problems. That’s because ordinary analogue hearing devices simply increase the
volume of everything: speech, ambient sound and background noise. The Mini Rechargeable Digital
Hearing Device is different. A registered class IIa medical device, it uses digital technology to convert
sound into ‘bits’ of data which are manipulated and processed. And as sound is distorted appreciably less
than on standard devices, speech is heard more clearly, background noise is reduced and feedback is
eliminated. What’s more, this outstanding performance is matched by amazing value for money. Fitting
discreetly in your ear, it features an adjustable volume control and comes with a slimline case that’s also a
charging station, complete with a mains adaptor. When it’s fully charged (indicated by LEDs), our digital
device can be used for 7-12 hours continuously, depending on the volume required. For travelling, the
hearing device unit can be charged using alkaline batteries. With 3 ear caps, cleaning brush and carry case,
it’s an easy step to easy listening.
