Programme Selector

Your hearing care professional has most likely programmed
multiple programmes into your instrument. You can select
programmes simply by depressing the programme selector
once. You will then hear one or more “beeps”, indicating
which programme you have selected. Your hearing instru­ment will switch programmes as follows:

Examples:
3 programmes: 1

→ 2, 2 → 3, 3 → 1

With optional telecoil: 1

→ 2, 2 → 3, 3 → T, T → 1

With telecoil
plus microphone: 1

→ 2, 2 → 3, 3 → MT, MT → 1

You can always return to programme 1 by turning your
instrument off and then on again or by placing it in stand­by mode and then returning to its operating mode.

Telecoil:

See section “Telephone Use” for a detailed description of
this function.

Danalogic 6 BTE instruments are all equipped with a telecoil
in their standard version.

Directionality

The Danalogic 6 instrument is equipped with two micro­phones and thus offer directionality. That is a function which
enables better speech understanding in noisy situations. This
function focuses on speech in front of you while sounds
coming from the back or the side are suppressed. Please ask
your hearing care professional about this automatic feature.

Stand-by Function

To put the instrument into stand-by mode, hold down the
programme selector for 5 seconds. You will hear a series of
beeps, and the device is now in stand-by mode. Before
returning to functional mode, you will need to wait approx­imately 5 seconds. After waiting, press the programme
selector down once. Please note that the instrument is using
a small amount of power when it is in stand-by mode.

On/Off Function

Your Danalogic 6 BTE is equipped with an on/off switch inte­grated into the battery compartment. When the battery
compartment is fully closed, the instrument is turned on in
its functional mode and programme 1 will be activated. To
turn the instrument off, press the tab on the base of the
instrument with your fingertip. The battery compartment
then snaps partly open and the instrument is turned off.
Whenever you are not wearing the instrument, remember to
turn it off to reduce battery consumption.

SmartStart

Smart Start allows you to insert the instrument in the ear
without annoying sounds like squealing. It delays the switch
on time 10 seconds after closing the battery compartment,
and is indicated by a beep every second after closing the bat­tery compartment.

Volume Control

Danalogic 6 offers a volume control allowing you to turn the
volume up and down. When wearing the instrument, you
can increase the volume by turning the volume control
wheel up, and reduce volume by turning it down.

For each volume step, you will hear a “beep” signal indicat­ing the change. If you reach the upper or lower limit of the
volume control range, there will be a different type of
“beep” signal with a lower pitch.
Please note that your instrument has been fitted by your
hearing care professional and that your hearing loss has
required a certain amount of amplification. This means that
you may not be able to increase the volume as much as you
can decrease it.

Direct Audio Input (DAI)

Danalogic 6 offers you the possibility of direct, undisturbed
connection to facilities such as television, radio and remote
microphone via the Direct Audio Input socket. Often, this
will improve sound quality. The sound source is connected to
your instrument with a cable or a wireless FM system to the
audio shoe. The audio shoe will connect with a “click” to
the hearing instrument and switch to Direct Audio Input
automatically.

Low Battery Warning

When the battery voltage/power decreases to a low level, the
instrument will inform you by a soft low-battery-warning sig­nal (beep-beep). The signal indicates you should replace the
battery, and for this reason we recommend that you always
have a spare battery. The battery-warning signal will be
repeated every 5-10 minutes until the battery runs out of
power. The instrument will then automatically switch off.
