The hearing aid will click to confirm that the volume has been changed and then will beep when you reach the programmed maximum or minimum.
You may hear a beep, when you return to the preset loudness level in your hearing aid. Please ask your hearing care professional for further information.
Your hearing aid automatically returns to a preset loudness level when it starts, the battery is low, or when the program is changed. If you find that the volume is not adequate, your hearing care professional may need to adjust your hearing aid settings.
