HOW TO USE YOUR FIRST HEARING AID
Any hearing aid cannot return level of your hearing to normal or
halt further hearing deterioration, but proper use of your hearing
aid can help you hear what is going on around you and let you
get more enjoyment of life.
If this is your rst hearing aid, you - like most new users - will
probably be surprised at the loudness of the sounds, and after
using it for a short while, you may even feel that it is too noisy. The
following three tips are important in overcoming your concerns.
1) Read this manual and become familiar with the hearing aid's
various mechanisms and how to use them correctly.
2) First, use your hearing aid in a quiet place and listen to quiet
sounds and give yourself sufcient time to get accustomed to
the sound of your hearing aid.
3) If any physical problems develop, consult your doctor.

Memory switching
The selector button gives access to four different memory set-
tings *. Using the selector button in the way shown below lets
you switch between the settings. When power to the hearing
aid is turned on (the battery holder is closed), the setting will
be "Memory 1". Depending on the environment (noisy loca-
tion, quiet location, etc.) you may want to change the setting.
When you operate the button, a beep sound pattern indicates
the change.
*
These have been optimized for your individual requirements.
There may be from 1 to 4 different memory settings.
Turn- on precaution
If the hearing aid is turned on again immediately after turning it off,
there may be no sound, but this is not a defect. In such a case,
turn the power off (open battery holder) and wait 10 seconds.
Then turn the power on again (close battery holder).
Adjusting the Controls
This hearing aid is a digital type. Any adjustments must be done
at the dealer. For details, please contact the dealer.

Use with an Induction Coil
This hearing aid allows you to hear sound from a microphone
and an Induction Coil, or just from an Induction Coil.
Please ask for more information from the dealer.
When using an Induction Coil, you may hear strange noises
when you are using it around radio wave emitting equipment
(such as alarmed gates).
For people who are bothered by feedback when they
remove the hearing aid
Press and hold the memory selector button for 2 or more seconds
to stop output from the hearing aid.
Feedback noise will not be heard from the hearing aid even if
you remove it with the battery holder closed.
Press and hold the memory selector button for 2 or more seconds
to resume output from the hearing aid.
After removing the hearing aid, make sure you open the battery
holder to turn the power off.
* After you start output again, the hearing aid will be set to “Mem-
ory 1”, irrespective of any settings you may have changed.
