Introduction

Multiﬂex Tinnitus Technology can be used

as a part of a tinnitus treatment program.

Multiﬂex Tinnitus Technology plays a white

noise through the hearing aid. The tinnitus

stimulus is programmed according to

your hearing loss, and your hearing care

professional can adjust the settings of the

tinnitus stimulus to meet your needs.

Preparation Preparation

Batteries

Your hearing system uses a battery as its power

source. This battery size can be identiﬁed by

the yellow (10) code on the packaging.

To insert or replace the battery:

1. Use the nail grip on the battery door.

2. Open the battery door gently and

remove the old battery.

3. Remove the tab from the new battery.

4. Line up the battery’s plus “+” sign (ﬂat

side of the battery) with the “+” on the

battery door.

5. Close the battery door.

Battery Indicators

An indicator will sound when the battery

voltage is low. You have approximately ﬁve

minutes* to replace the battery. An indicator

will sound just before the battery stops

working.

* Actual time between low battery indicator and shut down will vary

depending on environmental noise levels and brand of battery used.

My hearing instrument has a tamper resistant

battery compartment. See below.

Preparation Preparation

Tamper Resistant Battery Compartment

To lock the

battery door:

Use an appropriate tool

to slide the recessed

switch to the left until it

“clicks” and the colored

mark is visible.

To unlock the

battery door:

Slide the recessed

switch to the right

until it “clicks” and the

colored mark disappears.

Locking the door is not required for

operation.

WARNINGS Batteries are dangerous if swallowed.

To help prevent the accidental ingestion of batteries:

Keep out of reach of children and pets

Check your medications before taking them –

batteries have been mistaken for pills

Never put batteries in your mouth, as they can easily

be swallowed

Helpful Hints

• NEVER FORCE THE BATTERY DOOR

SHUT; this could result in serious

damage; if the door will not close

securely, check that the battery is

inserted correctly.

• Do not open the battery door too far

or damage is likely to occur.

• Dispose of used batteries immediately in

the proper waste or recycling container.

• Batteries vary in size and performance.

Your hearing care professional is your

best source for lifespan estimates and

veriﬁcation that you are using the proper

size and type.

Operation Operation

Telecoil and Manual Switching

Hearing instruments with a

manual telecoil allow you to

switch the devices to telephone

mode when needed.

Manually switched telecoils

are activated by choosing

the telecoil setting using the

Multifunction switch.

General Telephone Use

Some hearing instruments

work best by holding the

phone close to, but not fully

covering your ear. In some

instances, if you encounter

whistling (feedback), tilt the

receiver at an angle until the

whistling stops. Your hearing

professional can provide

instructions and techniques

for your speciﬁc needs.

Automatic Telephone and

Automatic Telecoil

These options activate the telephone

response automatically when used with a

hearing aid compatible telephone. To use,

place the telephone receiver on your ear

as you normally would and the hearing

instrument will select the telephone setting.

It might be necessary to move the telephone

receiver slightly to ﬁnd the best reception.

Once the telephone is removed from the

ear, the hearing instrument will switch back

to the normal listening mode.

NOTE Consult with your hearing professional

if your device does not seem to switch to the

telephone setting automatically.
