If you would like to turn off the hearing instrument microphone input and listen to the
FM input alone, you can advance to the next FM program by using the program switch
button.
As long as the FM receiver is connected to the instrument, two FM programs will
automatically be added after the standard programs which have been programmed into
your instrument by your Hearing Care Professional.
You can still use any of the standard programs while
the FM receiver is connected.
The already installed programs remain at their
original program numbering and can be selected by
switching forwards or backwards in the program
cycle.
For detailed instructions on handling and use of the
FM receiver, refer directly to the dedicated FM
receiver guide.
Caring for your hearing instrument
Your ear canal produces ear wax (cerumen) which may clog up the sound outlet or the
ventilation opening of your ear mould. To prevent wax accumulation from causing a
change in performance, the guidelines in this section should be followed.
When handling a hearing instrument, keep it over a soft surface to avoid damage if you
drop it.
Before retiring at night:
• Make sure that there is no ear wax in any of the ear mould openings since it may
reduce the hearing instrument’s efficiency.
• Open the battery door to allow air to circulate.
