Features of your hearing instrument
Latitude hearing instruments come equipped with the
following features:
• Automatic listening program (available for Latitude
16 and 8) and 3 additional manual programs.
Latitude 4 has 4 manual programs.
• SmartFocus or speech enhancement, with personal
adjustments for clarity and comfort settings
(available with the optional Smart Control)
• Wireless capability with DuoLink (Binaural Phone
available with Latitude 16)
• Optional wireless connectivity to other devices
It may take some time for you to fully adjust to your
new hearing instruments. In the beginning, do not feel
as though you need to wear them for longer than is
comfortable. Depending on your previous experience
with hearing instruments you can increase wearing
time gradually until you have fully adjusted to them.
Eventually, you should wear your Latitude hearing
instruments all day every day.
Please consult your hearing healthcare professional
regarding any adjustments you may require to ensure
that you are happy with your hearing instrument. For
instance, pitch and loudness of the beeps can be
adjusted or turned off entirely. Also note that this is a
general guide and your hearing healthcare

Battery information
To replace the hearing instrument battery, fully open
the battery door for access to the battery
compartment.
Low battery warning
Two long beeps indicate the hearing device battery is
low. After the low battery warning, you may
experience some reduction in sound quality. This is
normal and can be remedied by inserting fresh
batteries into the hearing devices.
If you are not able to hear the low battery warning,
your hearing healthcare professional can change the
pitch or loudness of the low battery warning. If you
prefer, it can be turned off entirely.

Operating instru tions
Push button
Your hearing instrument is equipped with a push
button, which has been set for switching
between programs or adjusting your volume.
Program control
If you have an active push button program control,
each time you push the button, you will move to a new
program. Also if DuoLink is enabled, the hearing
instrument is set so that by pressing the push button
on one hearing instrument, both hearing instruments
will change programs.
Your hearing instruments beep to indicate which
program you are in (i.e. one beep for program 1, two
beeps for program 2, etc.).
Your Latitude hearing instruments may also come with
an optional remote control which allows you to switch
You can use your index
finger to open and close the
battery door if this is easier.
2. Grasp the battery with your
thumb and index finger and
remove.
3. Insert the new battery into
the battery compartment
matching it with the battery
symbol inside the battery door.
This will ensure that the battery door closes
properly.
4. Close the battery door.
Note: If the batte y is inse ted inco ectly, the
hea ing inst ument will not tu n on.
Caring for batteries
• Always discard batteries in a safe and
environmentally friendly way.
• To prolong battery life, remember to turn your
hearing devices off when not in use.
• Remove the batteries and keep the battery door
open while hearing devices are not in use. This will
allow internal moisture to evaporate.

Program 1 (e.g. automatic program) 1 beep

SmartFo us™(available on optional Smart Control)
SmartFocus can be accessed through the optional
Smart Control. For improving clarity of sounds in front
of you, such as speech, the scroll wheel on the Smart
Control can be turned upwards. For greater overall
listening comfort in noisy situations, turn the scroll
wheel on the Smart Control downwards. Each step will
change the hearing instrument performance.
Sometimes multiple steps are required to achieve the
desired listening results. After each step wait for about
4-5 seconds to allow the hearing instrument to adjust
to the new setting.
Using the telephone
As telephones do not all work the same, you may
experience different results from different phones. You
can use many phones by simply holding the receiver to
your ear, without the need to change to a dedicated
telephone program. Remember to move the handset
slightly up or back to find the position that sounds
best to you.
Depending on the phone type you use, your hearing
healthcare professional might have selected a
dedicated phone program on your hearing
instruments. Therefore your hearing instrument may
have an automatic telephone program (easy-t feature),
which automatically switches you to a dedicated
between different listening programs. Please refer to
your Smart Control user guide for more information.
Volume control
If your push button has been configured as a volume
control, you can adjust the volume level by pushing
the button.
If DuoLink is enabled, the hearing instrument can also
be set so that by changing the volume on one hearing
instrument, both will be adjusted.
Your Latitude hearing instruments will learn your
volume control adjustments while the hearing
instruments are set to the automatic program, if this
feature has been enabled by your hearing healthcare
professional. Over time, the hearing instruments will
adjust the default volume settings in the automatic
program to the levels that you typically use.
Your hearing healthcare professional can help you
identify your different push button volume control
settings.
Volume etting Beep
Ideal volume level 1 beep
Increased loudness 1 beep + 1 high-pitched beep
Decreased loudness 1 beep + 1 low-pitched beep

To affix the optional ea y-t magnet:
1. Clean the telephone receiver.
2. Hold the magnet near the “listening end” of your
telephone receiver and release it (figure 1). The
magnet will flip to the appropriate side and seek
the optimal position on the telephone receiver.
3. Place the double-sided tape in this optimal position
on the telephone receiver (figure 2) and attach the
magnet to the tape (figure 3).
Caring for your hearing instruments
• Open the battery door when not in use.
• Always remove your hearing instruments when
using hair care products. The hearing instruments
can become clogged and cease to function
properly.
• Do not wear your hearing devices in the bath or
shower or immerse them in water.
telephone program when your hearing instrument is
close to a telephone receiver. When the receiver is
moved away from the hearing instrument it will
automatically return to the previous listening program.
If the hearing instrument does not switch to the
telephone program automatically when the telephone
receiver is placed in proximity, the magnet for easy-t
hearing instruments should be attached to the
telephone receiver. The magnet is designed to
strengthen the magnetic field at the ear piece of
hearing instrument compatible telephones.
If your Latitude hearing instruments are configured to
work with the wireless uDirect accessory, you might
benefit from a Bluetooth hands free option. Refer to
the uDirect user guide for more information.
If DuoLink is enabled for the automatic phone
program, both hearing instruments are synchronized
and the listening preference for the opposite ear will
also change when an automatic phone program is
activated.
Consult your hearing healthcare professional if you
experience difficulties using your hearing instruments
on the phone.

Cleaning the shells and domes
1. Clean the domes and shells on
the outside daily with a damp
cloth. Avoid getting any water
in and around the speaker
units and shells.
Note: The tubes, speake s, domes o shells
should neve be insed o subme ged in wate as
wate d ops may block sound o damage the
elect ical components of the hea ing inst ument.
2. Domes should be replaced by your hearing
healthcare professional every 3-6 months.
3. If your shells require further cleaning, the speaker
waxguard may be plugged and require replacing.
See your hearing healthcare professional.
• If your hearing instruments do become wet, do not
attempt to dry them in an oven or microwave. Do
not adjust any controls. Open the battery doors
immediately, and allow your hearing instruments to
dry naturally for 24 hours.
• Protect your hearing devices from excessive heat
(hair dryer, vehicle glove box or dashboard).
• Ensure you do not twist or squeeze the tube when
your hearing instruments are placed in their case.
• Regular use of a dehumidifier, such as a Dri-Aid kit,
can help prevent corrosion and prolong the life of
your hearing instruments.
• Do not drop your hearing devices or knock them
against hard surfaces.
Cleaning your hearing instruments
Ear wax is natural and common. Ensuring your hearing
devices, shells and domes are free of ear wax is an
important step in your daily cleaning and maintenance
routine.
• Never use alcohol to clean your hearing devices,
shells or domes.
• Do not use sharp tools to dislodge ear wax.
Sticking household items into your hearing devices
or shells can seriously damage them.
