button briefly to toggle between the device modes.
Wearing Widex Sound Assist
Widex Sound Assist can be carried using the
integrated metal clip. It can be attached directly on

Partner microphone
When a single speaker is wearing the Widex Sound
Assist, the device automatically streams the voice of
the person you're talking with to the hearing aid.

person, you can lock the listening direction and
manually point at the person you want to hear
better.
