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.

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.

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.
