Features of your Latitude™ Hearing

Instrument

Latitude™hearing instruments come equipped with

the following features:

• Automatic listening program for Latitude 16 and 8

and 3 additional manual programs. Latitude 4 has 4

manual programs.

• Ability to adjust your personal clarity and comfort

settings via smartFocus™on the optional Smart

Control, available on Latitude 16.

It may take some time for you to fully adjust to your

new hearing instruments. In the beginning, do not feel

as though you need to wear them for longer than is

comfortable. Depending on your previous experience

with hearing instruments you can increase wearing

time gradually until you have fully adjusted to them,

and then you should wear your Latitude hearing

instruments all day every day.

Please consult your hearing healthcare professional

regarding any adjustments you may require to ensure

that you are happy with your hearing instrument. For

instance, pitch and loudness of the beeps can be

adjusted or turned off entirely. Also note that this is a

general guide and your hearing healthcare

professional may have enabled or disengaged certain

features depending on your requirements.

Putting your Hearing Instruments on

Your Ears

Your Shift hearing instruments may be color-coded red

for your right ear and blue for your left ear. This color

indicator is located inside the battery door.

Shift™ with Domes

1. Hold the tube where it attaches to the dome and

gently push the dome into your ear canal. The tube

should lie flush against your head and not stick out.

2. Place the hearing instrument over the top of your

ear.

3. Place the retention piece in your ear so it rests at the

bottom of the opening of your ear canal.

Shift™ with Custom She s

1. Carefully insert the shell in your ear. The shell

should fit into your ear snugly and comfortably. The

tube should lie flush against your head and not stick

out.

2. Place the hearing instrument over the top of your

ear.

Turning your Hearing Instruments On

and Off

Your hearing instruments have a three-position

battery door that acts as an off/on switch and that

allows access to the battery compartment.

ON:

To turn the hearing instrument on, close the battery

door fully. Note: It may take 5 econd before the

hearing device turn on. Your hearing healthcare

provider can additionally increa e the tart up delay

if required.

OFF:

To turn the hearing instrument off, partially open the

battery door by grasping the battery door from the

sides. This position allows excess moisture to vent

away from the battery compartment.

on off open

Battery Information

To replace the hearing instrument battery, fully open

the battery door for access to the battery

compartment.

Low Battery Warning

When you hear two long beeps, your hearing

instruments are warning you that their batteries are

low. You will hear the warning approximately every 30

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.

Rep acing the Battery

1. Gently swing out the

battery door.

2. Grasp the battery with

your thumb and index

finger and remove.

3. Insert the new battery into the battery

compartment matching it with the battery symbol

inside the battery door. This will ensure that the

battery door closes properly.

Note: If the battery i in erted incorrectly, your

hearing in trument will not turn on.

4. Close the battery door.

Caring for Batteries

• Always discard batteries in a safe and

environmentally friendly way.

• 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.
