Selecting a hearing profile for sound enhancement

Page 27 highlights

Using the Set 880 Selecting a hearing profile for sound enhancement The hearing profiles allow you to alter the sound of the audio signal in order to improve the speech intelligibility and to adjust the sound to suit your preferences. The profiles are used to specifically change certain frequency ranges by e.g. boosting or attenuating low-frequency or high-frequency tones. All hearing profiles feature a compression function which compensates for volume differences by boosting the volume of quiet passages and reducing the volume of loud passages if necessary. The balance setting is saved on the stethoset receiver. If you are using several receivers with a transmitter, the respective receivers are optimally adjusted to match the personal hearing preferences of the users (e.g. you and your partner). Please note that the personal hearing preferences can only be adjusted when only stethoset receiver is connected to the transmitter. Displaying the activated hearing profile The activated hearing profile is not permanently displayed. To check the activate hearing profile: E Switch the stethoset receiver on by putting it on (see page 21). E Briefly press the Hearing profile button on the transmitter. The currently activated hearing profile is displayed for 10 seconds.
