Practical Solutions to Everyday Problems
Congratulations on choosing Breeze™Behind-the-ear
(BTE) digital hearing instruments.
For 40 years, Unitron Hearing has been committed to
making life better for people with hearing loss. This
means a commitment to developing high-quality
hearing solutions that incorporate special features to
solve the everyday problems and concerns you have
with hearing loss and hearing instruments.
Getting the Most Out of Your Breeze™
Hearing Instruments
Adjusting to your new hearing instruments will take
some time. In the beginning it is important that you do
not use the hearing instruments for longer than is
comfortable. Depending on your previous experience
with hearing instruments, a few hours a day may be
enough and then you can increase wearing time
gradually. Once you have become accustomed to your
hearing instruments, you should wear them all day
every day since infrequent use will not permit you to
adapt to your hearing instruments and enjoy their full
benefits. The quicker you get used to the everyday
sounds around you, the less you will notice that you are
wearing hearing instruments.

allowing you to switch between the
Microphone, Telecoil and Off positions.
M – Select Microphone for normal listening

Turning Your Breeze™Hearing Instruments On
and Off
To turn your hearing instruments on, move the function
switch to the M position or insert the battery and close
the battery door.
To turn your hearing instruments off, move the function
switch to the O position or open the battery door and
remove the battery.
Switching to Telecoil (T position)
The telecoil improves listening on the telephone. When
the telecoil is activated, the microphone on your
hearing instrument will be turned off. You must have a
telecoil-compatible telephone for this feature to work
properly. To use the telecoil, move the function switch to
the “T” position. Center the telephone receiver on the
hearing instrument. Move the receiver along the
instrument to locate the clearest, strongest signal. You
may have to increase the volume on your hearing
instrument. To return to normal listening, move the
function switch to the “M” position.
Adjusting the Volume
Your Breeze digital hearing instruments have a volume
control. The volume control dial is numbered one to
four. One indicates that the volume is at the minimum
level and four indicates that the volume is at the
5
maximum level. Rotate the volume control upward to
increase the volume or downward to decrease the
volume.
Replacing the Battery
1. Gently swing out the battery
compartment door with your fingernail.
2. Grasp the battery with your thumb and
forefinger and remove.
3. Insert the new battery into the battery
compartment with the plus (+) sign on
the battery facing the same way as the plus (+) sign
on the edge of the battery door. This will ensure that
the battery door closes properly.
Note: If the battery is inserted incorrectly, the door
will not close.
4. Close the battery compartment door.
Low Battery Warning
When you hear three short beeps, your digital hearing
instruments are warning you that their batteries are low.
You will hear the warning approximately every 5 minutes
until you change the batteries or the batteries die. After
the first warning, you may experience some reduction in
sound quality. This is normal and can be remedied by
inserting fresh batteries in the hearing instruments.

Caring for Batteries
• Always discard batteries carefully.
• To prolong battery life, remember to turn your hearing
devices off when not in use.
• Remove the batteries and keep the battery door open
while hearing devices are not in use. This will allow
internal moisture to evaporate.
Warnings
• Never leave hearing devices or batteries where small
children and pets can reach them.
• Never put hearing devices or batteries in your mouth.
If a hearing device or battery is swallowed, call a
physician immediately.
Earmolds
Earmolds feed amplified sound from the hearing
devices into the ears. They must fit into your ears
snugly and comfortably. If amplified sound leaks out of
your ear, you may hear whistling.
Always ensure earmolds are clean and free of ear wax
and moisture. Do not use alcohol to clean your
earmolds. If the earmolds become plugged, clear the
opening with a wax loop or pipe cleaner. If your
physician prescribes ear drops, clean any moisture that
may get into the earmolds or tubing to prevent plugging.
