Using BeHear ACCESS
Personal Hearing
Once powered on, the BeHear ACCESS headset operates as a personal sound amplifier. No
Bluetooth pairing is required for this type of sound amplification. Ambient sounds are amplified
and transmitted from the headset's microphones directly to your ears.
RECOMMENDATION:
For best results we recommend turning off key tones (alerts, notification sounds, keyboard taps,
etc.) in the smartphone connected to your BeHear ACCESS headset. Alternatively, place the
phone in "vibrate" or "silent" mode. This will guarantee smooth and pleasant operation of your
BeHear ACCESS as a personal sound amplifier without undesired sound disruptions produced by
background smartphone activity.
Four different presets have been created to support optimal hearing for typical environments:
Indoor, Outdoor, Crowd and Live Music. In addition, two presets have been created for T-coil
operation: Exclusive T-coil and Transparent T-coil.
These presets can be used as is, out-of-the-box. They will be personalized automatically based
on the results of the BeHear ACCESS Hearing Assessment, which is included the W&H BeHear
smartphone app. Furthermore, these presets can be customized by the user in real-time to suit
specific hearing situations. The customized presets can either be saved as the new default or
discarded.
