microphone cannot be supported, the hearing instrument will
play two sets of descending tones. After this, your hearing
instrument and remote control will continue to work as usual,
butyouwillnotbeabletouseyourTVstreamer,phoneclip
or clip-on microphone. At some point the battery level will
no longer support the remote control but the hearing instru-
ments will continue to work as usual. Once a new battery is
inserted, full operation of the accessories will resume.
FLIGHT MODE (for instruments paired with
accessories)
When boarding a flight, or entering an area where RF
transmitters are prohibited, wireless functionality must be
deactivated, as it is not allowed to radiate radio signals.
It is possible to disable wireless operation by opening and
closing the battery compartment of the hearing instrument
while at the same time pressing the top edge of the multi-
function switch.
Once disabled, wireless operation can be re-enabled by
opening and closing the battery compartment normally, (i.e.,
without pressing the multifunction switch at the same time).
AUTOPHONE
The autophone function allows your hearing instrument
to automatically switch to the telephone program when a
telephone receiver is raised to the ear. When the telephone
receiver is moved away from the ear, the hearing instrument
automatically returns to the previous listening program.
The autophone function allows you to use the telephone
in a normal manner. You will hear a beep whenever the
autophone feature automatically switches the hearing instru-
ment into or out of your telephone program. Experiment
with various telephone placements to find the best position
for reliable autophone activation and optimal hearing on the
telephone.
Placement of autophone magnets.
Place an autophone magnet on your telephone receiver to
allow operation of the autophone function. In order to place
the autophone magnet properly:
1. Clean the telephone receiver thoroughly.
2. Hold the telephone vertically, in a position similar to
when making a telephone call.
3. Place the magnets just below the telephone receiver.
Make sure not to cover the microphone openings.
If necessary, move
the magnet to another
position to improve ease
of use and comfort while
speaking.
4. If you are not satisfied
with the strength of the
autophone, you can
reposition the autophone
magnet or add additional
autophone magnets.
