Feedback-Free Listening
Your Element hearing instruments have an optional start
up delay that can be activated by your hearing
healthcare professional. If the start up delay is activated,
your hearing instruments will not turn on for 10-15
seconds even if the battery door is closed fully. The
hearing devices return to the start up delay position
each time you turn your hearing devices on. This allows
you to insert your hearing devices without experiencing
whistling.
If you wear hearing devices now, you may have
experienced whistling from your hearing devices when
you talk, chew, use the telephone or hug someone.
Element’s feedback technology dramatically reduces this
uncomfortable whistling before you or anyone else can
perceive it.
