Overview
To meet your 
client’s needs, two 
different hearing 
inrument types
are available: Fun P 
for moderate to 
severe hearing loss and Fun SP for severe to profound 
hearing loss. To select the appropriate hearing inrument 
type, the client’s audiogram is needed.

Step 2: Determine and set 
the sound prole
Overview
Every hearing 
inrument has a 
choice of sound 
proles. These 
are pre-congured 
setups of the 
hearing inrument, for typical hearing losses.
You need the client’s audiogram to determine the 
suitable sound prole. With the rocker switch, you set the 
correct sound prole. 
Note that the rocker switch has a double function: A 
short press makes the hearing inrument louder or 
softer. A long press changes the sound prole.
12
Inruction with example
Select the sound prole table which corresponds 
to the hearing inrument type you have chosen in 
"Step 1: Select the hearing inrument type".
Mark the row for the dB-value at 0.5 kHz.
Mark the column for the dB-value at 2 kHz.
The recommended sound prole is shown where 
 and  intersect.

To set the determined sound prole in the hearing 
inruments:
XUse a ethoclip to hear the 
syem sounds better.
XInsert a battery and wait for the artup-melody to 
ensure that the inrument is turned on.
15
X
To switch to the next sound prole, hold down the top
of the rocker switch and release it after a minimum of 
10 seconds.
On release, the sound prole is changed and a 
conrmation tone is played.
Note that the factory setting is sound prole 1.

XTo switch to the previous sound prole, proceed as 
described above, but hold down the bottom of the 
rocker switch.
If you turn off the hearing inrument immediately 
after changing the sound prole, the sound prole 
change may not be saved. Wait 5 seconds before 
turning the hearing inrument off.
16
Step 3: Select ear piece and 
tube length
Overview
Select the ear piece, 
cut the tube and 
assemble the hearing 
inrument.
Inruction
XSelect the ear piece that suits the client’s ear canal 
size and assemble it with adapter and tube.
Start with the bigger ear piece.
17
CAUTION
Risk of injury!
XMake sure your client always wears the tube 
with an ear piece.
XMake sure that the ear piece is completely 
attached.
XIf you provide cuom-made 
ear pieces, we recommend using 
them with sound prole 4 for Fun P 
and with sound proles 2, 3 or 4 for 
Fun SP.
XTurn off the hearing inrument and place the hearing 
inrument on the client’s ear.
18
XInsert the ear piece in the client's ear and measure the 
correct tube length. Mark it with a pen before cutting. 
At a safe diance to the client, cut the tube. Attach the 
tube to the hearing inrument.
XInsert the hearing inrument in the client’s ear and 
turn it on.
19
Step 4: Te
Overview
Try different volume levels or, if necessary, 
change the sound prole. 
Note that the rocker switch has a double 
function: A short press makes the hearing 
inrument louder or softer. A long press
changes the sound prole.
Inruction
The target is to ensure that volume and sound of the 
hearing inrument is to the requirements of the client.
● Explain client how to adju the volume with the rocker 
switch.
● Speak to the client (normal loudness) and let the client 
increase the inruments' volume to a comfortable 
level.
20
If the client needs more gain:
XBriefly press the top of the rocker 
switch to increase the volume.
Repeat as necessary.
XIf the client ill requires more 
gain, switch to the next sound 
prole: Hold down the top of the 
rocker switch and release it after a 
minimum of 10 seconds. Refer to 
section "Set the sound prole".
If the highe sound prole is ill too soft:
XSelect Fun SP.
XOr, if you have already selected Fun SP, the Fun 
series of hearing inruments may not be suitable  .
