2.3 Use charging dock for the first time
Remove O-Ring and Shut-off Clip from ITM tray and discard. Place ITM tray in
Charger.
2.4 System reset
When the BTE unit or ITM device is reinserted into its Charger dock, the device will
reset itself after 10 seconds. This reset feature may be useful if the link between ITM
and BTE is unexpectedly lost or should any unusual sounds or other conditions
appear.
Note: System reset can be realized regardless of external power connected or not.
This method can be used to reset the device in case of disconnection, abnormal
sound and other conditions during use.
2.5 Low battery indicator
When the BTE unit or ITM device battery is low, you will hear three sequential beeps
that indicate you need to charge your device.
2.6 Eating While Wearing Your In-The-Mouth (ITM) Device
So that you may fully participate in social situations, the ITM device is designed so
that it may be worn at your discretion while eating. For safety, the device is designed
to be large enough to prevent accidental swallowing. Nonetheless, extra caution
should be taken to avoid swallowing the ITM. Be sure to rinse the ITM device after
each meal. Prior to eating with the ITM device in your mouth you should carefully read
the General Warnings and Precautions section of this manual.
2.7 Signal interference
The SoundBite Hearing System contains a wireless radio link that allows the BTE unit
to transmit audio picked up from the impaired ear and transmit it to the ITM device.
The low power wireless technology is designed to allow an operating range within the
proximity of the head.
As with any wireless system, SoundBite may be susceptible to interference from other
common radio frequency (RF) devices, such as hand-held computer devices or
mobile phones. Consult the Warnings and Precautions sections for more information.
If the system encounters RF interference, the wireless link between the BTE and ITM
may be affected, resulting in no audio output. The link will be reestablished
automatically once the interference is removed and audio will resume. If the system
does not recover, you may need to perform a System Reset before putting the devices
Attention:
If BTE and ITM are placed in a distance within 23 cm, the
connection will be established. It may give whistling.
When BTE or ITM is inserted into the slot of charging dock, it will
enter the standby state for power saving (stop whistling).
Do not wear ITM when going to sleep.
