Your hearing aids

This user guide describes optional features that your

hearing aids may or may not have.

Ask your Hearing Care Professional to indicate the

features that are valid for your hearing aids.

hearing aids. With the aids in your hand try using the

controls and note their location on the aid. This will make it

easier for you to feel and press the controls while wearing

the hearing aids.

hearing aids while wearing them, you can ask your

Hearing Care Professional whether a remote control

or a smartphone app to control your aids is available.
