Your hearing aid, earmold, cleaning accessories and

the like may not look exactly the same as in these user’s

instructions. We furthermore reserve the right to make

any changes considered necessary.

Hearing aids and their accessories should

not be disposed of with normal household

waste. Please consult your national Widex

distributor for advice on how to dispose of

your hearing aid.

Your new Senso Diva

Widex has been developing and manufacturing high

quality hearing aids since 1956. In Senso Diva we

have utilized the latest advancements in digital

technology and created a hearing aid with innovat-

ive and sophisticated solutions that make the most

of your hearing ability and help ensure optimum

communication.

A. Senso Diva without a volume control

B. Senso Diva with a volume control

Senso Diva gives you the clearest and most comfor-

table sound possible and automatically adjusts loud-

ness according to your listening environment.

Through a continuous analysis of the incoming

sounds, Senso Diva is able to reduce noise and en-

hance speech. Senso Diva also allows enhancement

of the sounds of a speciﬁc person or sound source by

attenuating noise coming from behind you - you

just have to turn your head in the direction of that

person or sound source. Senso Diva is able to effec-

tively reduce any feedback whistling – an otherwise

common complaint of hearing aid users. In addition

to the traditional listening programs, Senso Diva

may be equipped with a music program specially

optimized for listening to music.

To get full satisfaction from the quality and the per-

formance we have built into your Senso Diva hear-

ing aid, please read and follow the instructions care-

fully. We hope you will be pleased with your new

Senso Diva hearing aid. Happy listening!

The battery

Battery type

The recommended battery type for your Senso Diva

is:

Zinc Air battery type 13

Please note the expiration date on the battery pack.

To ensure proper battery function, do not use bat-

teries past the expiration date. Because they are Zinc

Air type batteries, they need air to work. Therefore,

do not remove the adhesive tab until just before in-

serting the battery in the hearing aid. Once the tab

has been removed, the battery will start functioning

after a few seconds. The lifetime of the battery de-

pends on a number of factors, such as the setting of

your hearing aid, how many hours you use it daily

and the listening environments in which you use it.

Inserting the battery

Before inserting a new battery in

your hearing aid, remember to re-

move the adhesive tab. Do not use

batteries on which there is a sticky

residue from the tab or other unwanted substance as

this can block the battery airholes.

Push the nail grip downwards to

swing open the battery drawer.

The nail grip is located on the

opposite side of the on/off switch

at the bottom of the hearing aid.

The plus (+) sign of the battery must face upwards.

If the battery drawer does not close easily, the bat-

tery is incorrectly inserted.

Changing the battery

If you hear four rapid beep-tones while wearing

your hearing aid, it is an indication that the battery

is nearly exhausted. Once the battery is totally ex-

hausted, the hearing aid will be completely silent.

Exactly how long the hearing aid will function after

the beep-tones varies from one case to another. We

recommend that you always have a spare battery

with you.

The rate at which a battery loses power is depen-

dent upon the circumstances under which the bat-

tery is used. In some circumstances, the battery can

drain so suddenly that the beep-tones for low bat-

tery warning will only be partially produced or not

be produced at all.

Never leave an exhausted battery in the hearing aid.

Exhausted batteries may leak, which could damage

the hearing aid. When changing batteries, it is a

good idea to hold the hearing aid over a table or a

carpet, in case you drop the hearing aid or battery.

The hearing aid can be provided

with a battery drawer lock, if re-

quired. This is a particularly good

idea if the hearing aid is worn by

a child. A special tool for opening

the lock will be included when

ordering the lock (see the draw-

ing).

You open the lock by push-

ing it to the right and then

downward with the tool in

one movement as illustrat-

ed.

Turning the hearing aid on and off

The battery drawer is placed

at the bottom of the hearing

aid. The battery drawer also

functions as the on/off switch.

The hearing aid is turned on

when the switch is pushed up-

wards, and off when the switch

is pushed downwards as illus-

trated.

The word “OFF” is clearly

visible on the switch when the

hearing aid is turned off.

Please remember to switch the hearing aid off when

it is not in use. Remove the battery if the hearing aid

will not be used again soon.

Left/right identiﬁcation

If you wear hearing aids on

both ears, your hearing

healthcare professional can

put color indicators on your

hearing aids so you can easily

see which is for the left ear

and which is for the right ear

(red mark = right and blue

mark = left).

Placing Senso Diva on/in the ear

Insert a battery in your hearing aid. We recommend

that you turn off the hearing aid before placing it on

the ear. First insert the earmold in the ear canal

while holding the lower part of the tubing. It may

also be helpful to gently pull the outer ear back-

wards and upwards with the opposite hand.

Once the earmold has been inserted, you place the

hearing aid behind the ear, so that the hook rests

comfortably on the ear, close to your head. When

the hearing aid is in its correct position, turn on the

hearing aid.

Removing Senso Diva

First remove the hearing aid from its position be-

hind the ear. Carefully pull the earmold out of the

ear canal, while holding the lower part of the tubing.

If it is difﬁcult, it may help to try to move the ear-

mold carefully from side to side while pulling it out.

It may also help to pull the outer ear backwards and

upwards with the opposite hand.

Automatic adjustment of loudness

Senso Diva adjusts loudness automatically in accor-

dance with your sound environment. Several thou-

sand times per second, Senso Diva analyzes the sur-

roundings and tailors its sound accordingly. With

Senso Diva you do not have to think about adjusting

the volume – it happens quite automatically.

Important: If the volume in your hearing aid is too

loud or too weak, or if the reproduced sounds are

distorted, or you would like any further information,

consult the hearing healthcare professional where

you received your hearing aid.

Fine tuning loudness

Your hearing aid may be pro-

vided with a volume control,

shaped like a small lever. Push

the lever upwards to raise the

automatically set volume.

Push the lever downwards to

lower the volume. Use short

touches for minor corrections

of the volume. Faster adjustments are obtained by

keeping the lever pressed for some seconds.

When you raise the volume, you will hear a beep-

tone for each step the volume is raised. When you

lower the volume, you will hear a deeper beep-tone

for each step the volume is lowered. When the max-

imum or minimum adjustment level is reached, a

steady tone will sound until you release the lever.

Any adjustment of the automatic volume setting

will be cancelled when your hearing aid is turned

off.

Listening programs

Your Senso Diva may be equipped with a number of

listening programs optimized for different listening

situations. Your hearing healthcare professional can

help you select the programs that are of use to you

and make them available on the hearing aid pro-

gram switch. If your needs change over time, the

combination of listening programs can be changed.

In these user’s instructions, the hearing healthcare

professional can list the listening programs that are

available in your hearing aid (see page 20).

Listening programs:

M: “M” stands for Microphone and is the standard

setting. It is the listening program for ordinary lis-

tening situations.

M+T: “M+T” stands for a combination of micro-

phone and telecoil (M+T). If you activate “M+T”

you can listen to the source of sound and still hear

the surrounding sounds.

T: “T” stands for Telecoil. The telecoil can only be

used where a loop system is installed. Activating the

telecoil will enable you to listen to the source of

sound while excluding surrounding sounds.

Music: The music program is optimized for listen-

ing to music. The music program is not available in

all Senso Diva models.
