Your hearing aid is full automatic and will make its own adjustments to
suit our environment. However, ou have the option, if ou wish, of
making our own adjustments using the following manual controls:
Volume wheel
When ou turn the hearing aid on, it should automaticall go to a volume
level which is comfortable for ou. It ma take a few da s for the hearing
aid to ‘learn’ what this level is.
You can alter the volume b rolling the volume wheel up (to make the aid
louder) or down (to make it quieter). If ou tr to move the hearing aid
be ond the loudest or quietest level it can provide, it will beep to tell ou
that it is at the edge of its volume range and cannot be altered an further.
Programme button
Your hearing aid has up to 3 different programmes, as follows:
Programme

it off and then on again. If we have added other programmes and ou

If ou have a Reflex hearing aid in each ear, the will automaticall
communicate with each other to help provide ou with balanced hearing.
For example, if ou manuall increase the volume on one hearing aid, the
other one will increase its volume as well.
Data Logging
It is important to us that our hearing aid sounds right. The hearing aid
stores information such as how long ou have it turned on per da , what
settings ou have it on and what t pe of sound environments ou are in.
This helps us to identif adjustments we ma need to make to the aid, and
also assists us in giving ou the best possible advice on using the aid.
