Page 8: Telecoil (M-T-Mt)
Telecoil (M-T-MT) Switch to “T”: Your hear- ing aid is equipped with a telecoil. You can activate it by pressing the battery compartment cover briefly once (for approximately 1 second). Bravo will signal the change by making one brief beep-tone. Switch back to “M”: If you wish to listen via the microphone again (normal use), press the battery compartment cover briefly again. - Page 9 Listening via the telecoil “T” can be useful e.g. when telephoning. But on some telephones, the magnetic field is inadequate, in which case the “M” position should be used. If you are not sure your phone is hearing aid compatible, consult your hearing healthcare professional.

Clean the new battery care- fully with a dry cloth to remove any sticky residue before in- serting. The battery is placed correctly when the plus (+) sign on the battery is upwards (visible). - Page 11 Exhausted battery: If you hear four rapid beep-tones while wearing your hearing aid, it is an indication that you should exchange the battery as soon as possible, as the battery is nearly ex- hausted. Once the battery is totally exhausted, the hearing aid will be completely silent.
