22 | Multiflex Tinnitus Technology

Introduction
Multiflex Tinnitus Technology can be used as part
of a tinnitus treatment program. Multiflex Tinnitus
Technology plays a tinnitus stimulus through the
hearing aid. The tinnitus stimulus is programmed
according to your hearing loss, and your hearing
professional can adjust the settings of the tinnitus
stimulus to meet your needs.
Sprinkler Tinnitus Stimulus Control
If your user control is configured as a sprinkler
stimulus control, each time you activate the user
control, the stimulus level in your hearing aid
changes.
Sprinkler stimulus control is configured by
default to automatically decrease in level before
it increases. To make the stimulus level louder,
activate the user control. Repeat this motion until
you are at the minimum setting. The next time you
activate the user control, the level will increase one
step. Continue to activate the user control until you
reach the desired loudness.
If 10 minutes or more have passed since
NOTE:
the last stimulus level change, the level will
automatically decrease before it increases.

Up/Down Tinnitus Stimulus Control
If your user control is configured as a dedicated up/
down stimulus control, each time you activate the user
control, the stimulus level in your hearing aid always
changes in a specific direction (either up or down).
For example, a short press and release may increase
the stimulus level while a long press and hold may
decrease the stimulus level in your hearing aid.
Some user controls can be set for the Right hearing aid
to increase stimulus level and the Left hearing aid to
decrease stimulus level.
Rocker Switch Tinnitus Stimulus Control
If your rocker switch is configured for Tinnitus Stimulus
Control, pressing the top part of the switch increases
the stimulus level while pressing the bottom part of
the switch decreases the stimulus level.

following control:
