Turning on and off

Your ReSound Match BTE is equipped

with an on/off switch integrated into

the battery compartment.

Turn your hearing instrument on

by closing the battery door.

Turn your instrument off by opening up

the battery door.

When rst turned on, your hearing

instrument will always start

in programme 1.

To read more on this subject,

turn to page 14.

• Turning your instrument off when you are not using it will in-

crease the battery life.

• At night, turn off your instrument and open the battery door

completely. It will allow moisture in your instrument to eva-

porate and will increase the instrument’s life span.

Low Battery Warning

The hearing instrument has a soft low-battery-warning signal

(beep-beep) that you will hear when the battery voltage/power

gets too low. The signal indicates you should replace the bat-

tery. We recommend that you always carry a spare battery with

you. The low-battery-warning signal will be repeated every 5-10

minutes until the battery runs out of power. The instrument will

then automatically switch off.

Changing the Battery

Open the battery compartment completely, using your nger-

nail to pull back on the small ridge located at the top of the

door. After removing the old battery, insert the new one with

the“+” (at) side facing the “+” on the battery door. Make sure

the battery has been placed correctly into the slot. The battery

door should close very easily. Never use force to close the door

as this may damage your hearing instrument.

Hearing Instruments

Always use a size 13 Zinc-Air battery. Please note that if the

battery is weak, the hearing instrument performance will be

reduced. Removing the battery when you are not wearing the

instrument will help prevent corrosion of the battery contacts

and prolong battery life.

Battery Warning Information

Batteries contain dangerous substances and should be dis-

posed of carefully in the interest of your safety and for the

environment.

• Do NOT attempt to recharge batteries which are not speci-

cally designated rechargeable as they may leak or explode.

• Do NOT attempt to dispose of batteries by burning them.

• Keep batteries away from small children and pets.

• Do NOT place batteries in your mouth.

If swallowed, seek immediate medical attention.

Inserting your instrument

• Open the battery door to turn the

instrument off. Hold the ear mould

between your thumb and index n-

ger and position its ‘point’ in your ear

canal. Now, slide the ear mould all

the way into your ear with a gentle,

twisting movement. Insertion can be

easier if you gently pull your ear back

with your other hand.

• Turn the top-part of the ear mould

gently backwards and forwards so

that it ts behind the fold of skin

above your ear canal.

• Place the hearing instrument behind

your ear. Move the ear mould up and

down and press lightly to ensure it is

positioned correctly in the ear. Open-

ing and closing your mouth can ease

insertion. You will feel when the ear

mould is positioned correctly.

• When correctly positioned turn on

your instrument by closing the bat-

tery door.

Removing your instrument

• Turn off the instrument by opening the battery door.

• Remove the hearing instrument from behind your ear,

allowing it to hang next to your ear.

• Using your thumb and index nger, gently pull the ear mould

(not the instrument or the tubing) loose from your ear.

• Remove the ear mould completely by gently twisting it.

Recognising left and right instrument

If you have two hearing instruments, they may be set differently.

One for your left ear, the other for your right. Do not switch

them. Please pay attention to this when cleaning, storing and

inserting the instruments.

Volume Control

All the ReSound Match BTE models

have a volume control which allows

you to set and control the volume

manually. The volume wheel has

numbers on it from 1 to 4, with 4

being the maximum volume setting.

During the tting of the hearing in-

strument, your hearing care practi-

tioner will select an optimal volume

setting for you. Please note the setting of that particular level.

To increase the volume with the instrument t to your ear, turn

the volume control wheel up. To reduce the volume, turn the

wheel down.

Please note that your instrument has been t by your hearing

care professional and that your hearing loss requires a certain

amount of amplication. This will also effect how much you are

able to increase the volume on your instrument.

Pre-set Control (Trimmers)

Pre-set controls are placed behind

the cover on the back of the in-

strument. The cover should always

remain closed to prevent dirt and

moisture from entering the instru-

ment. If the cover should acciden-

tally fall off, contact your hearing

care professional to obtain a repla-

cement.

The pre-set controls will have been adjusted by your hearing

care professional during your tting session. The setting of the

controls is done according to the individual characteristics of

your particular hearing loss.

The control settings should therefore NOT BE ALTERED or

readjusted except by your hearing care professional.

Programme Selector

Your hearing instrument has a push

button allowing you to use up to

three separate listening program-

mes, each of them suitable for dif-

ferent situations. The number of

programmes available to you will

depend on the hearing instrument

model you purchased.

If you purchased an MA1T70-V, MA2T70-V or MA2 T80-V hearing

instrument you will have 2 programmes to select from. The

MA3T70-V and MA3T80-V hearing instruments have a third pro-

gramme that is designed to be used with the telephone or in

settings that have an induction loop system.

Programme 1 is the default programme. Programme 2 is spe-

cically designed to make it easier for you to hear in noisy

situations. Program 3 has a built in function called the tele-

coil which is designed to make it easier for you to hear on the

telephone or in places that have an induction loop system.

When you push the programme selector you will then hear one,

two or three “beeps”, indicating which programme you have

selected. Your hearing instrument will switch programmes as

follows:

Examples:

• The hearing instrument automatically defaults to program-

me 1. If you have 2 or 3 programmes, you can press the pro-

gramme button once to get to programme 2 and twice to get

to programme 3. You will hear 2 beeps when you are in pro-

gramme 2 and 3 beeps when in programme 3.

• If you are in programme 2 or 3 and want to get back to pro-

gramme 1, press the programme button until you hear just 1

beep.

In addition, you can also set your instrument to programme 1

by turning it off and then on again or by placing it in stand-by

mode and then returning to its operating mode.

Telephone use

Using the telephone, while wearing your hearing instrument,

may require some practice. Many hearing instruments will

whistle when the phone is held up against them.

Place the telephone receiver as shown

in the drawing. If you hear a “whistle”

sound, try moving the telephone

receiver so it is not touching the

hearing aid.

T-programme (Telecoil programme)

If you purchased an MA3T70-V or MA3T80-V hearing instrument,

it will have a built in function, the telecoil, which can enable you

to hear better on the telephone and in churches or halls that

have an induction loop system installed in them. In order to ac-

tivate this function, the telecoil programme has to be selected.

In this programme you typically will hear no sounds from the

microphone, therefore most environmental sounds will be lost.

If you wish, your hearing care practitioner can change the set-

ting in such a way that you hear the microphone and the tele-

coil simultaneously.

Using the telephone with induction loop.

• Switch your instrument to the tele coil programme

(programme 3).

• Hold your telephone handset be-

hind your ear, close to the hearing

instrument (2-3 cm.) and slightly

tilt the receiver outwards.

• Listen to the dial tone and move

the handset a little to nd the

position that gives the best re-

ception.

• If needed, turn the volume up or down.

• After completing the phone call, switch your instrument back

to the microphone programme.

If the phone you are using has a poor telecoil signal, use pro-

gramme 1 instead. Do not hold the handset too tightly against

your ear since this might cause ’whistling’.

Hearing through an induction loop

Many public places, churches, theatres and cinemas, have

induction loop systems. In these particular rooms, the in-

duction loops transmit, wirelessly, the sound of the presenter

or show. At home, radio or television can be connected to an

induction loop system. Sound quality through an induction

loop is often better because noise from the environment is not

amplied.

• Switch your instrument to the telecoil programme.

• Choose a good location. Reception is not clear in all locati-

ons; it depends on the position of the induction loop. Watch

for signs or try a different seat yourself.

• If necessary, adjust the volume up or down.

• After the service or show, switch your instrument back to

your standard programme. You will now hear through the mi-

crophone again.

• If the sound in the telecoil programme is in general very soft

or very loud, ask your hearing care practitioner to adjust the

program accordingly.

• Your hearing care practitioner will gladly provide you with

advice regarding an induction loop system at home. Ask for

it.

Daily Maintenance

Keep your hearing instrument clean and dry. Wipe the case with

a soft cloth or tissue after use to remove oil or moisture. If the

instrument has been exposed to high humidity or perspiration,

enclose it (with the ear mould) in a sealed container together

with a drying agent (desiccant) overnight. Consult your hearing

care professional concerning which drying agent to use.

To avoid the need for unwarranted repairs:

• Never immerse the instrument in water or other liquids since

this may cause permanent damage to the circuitry.

• Protect your hearing instrument from rough handling, and

avoid dropping it on hard surfaces or oors.

• Do not leave the instrument in or near direct heat or sun-light

since excessive heat can damage the instrument or casing.

Cleaning the ear mould

• First, remove the tubing and ear

mould from the hearing instru-

ment. Keep left and right instru-

ment separated.

• Remove earwax with the clea-

ning brush and a soft cloth. If

necessary, use a mild solution of

soft soap and water or a special cleaning solution. Ask your

hearing care practitioner for detailed instructions.

• Rinse the ear mould with water.

Note: Do not use water or other liquids on the hearing instru-

ment itself.

• Dry the ear mould with a cloth.

• Remove water drops from the

tubing and ear mould. A special

device is available for this from

your hearing care practitioner.

• Ensure that the ear mould and

tubing are completely dry before

attaching them to the hearing instrument. Make sure that

you connect the correct earmoulds to their corresponding

instruments. Check the gures on page 11.

Replacing the tube

Ask your hearing care practitioner to replace the ear mould

tubing if it becomes stiff or changes colour.
