Seven Easy Steps To Better Hearing - oticon CIC Instructions For Use Manual

seven easy steps to better hearing

Over the first days and weeks of using your hearing instruments, you will experience
sounds that will be new to you, especially if you have not worn hearing instruments
previously. Now is the time to experiment with listening to these new or long-forgotten
sounds.
In the quiet of your home
Try to acclimate yourself to all the new sounds. Listen to the many background sounds
and try to identify each sound. Bear in mind that some sounds will seem different from
what you are used to. You may have to learn to identify them again. Note that in time you
will get accustomed to the sounds in your environment – if not please contact your
Hearing Care Professional.
If using the hearing instrument makes you tired, take them off for a little while and have a
rest. Gradually, you will begin to be able to listen for longer periods of time. Soon, you will
be able to wear your hearing instrument comfortably all day long.
