Siemens S, P manual Using the directional microphone system, Hearing system with 2 or 3microphones

Using the directional microphone system

According to your hearing needs, your ACURIS hearing system can be adjusted to focus on those sounds in front of you (directional mode) for when you are having a face-to-face conversation in a noisy environment. The hearing system can also be adjusted for when you are participating in more quiet environments and want to hear the sounds around you (omnidirectional mode).

Your hearing instrument specialist will program the operation of the directional microphone system to function automati- cally or in conjunction with the program button based on your individual hearing requirements and preferences. If

the directional microphone system is not programmed to function automatically, your hearing instrument specialist can instruct you on its use.

Hearing system with 2 or 3microphones

If you have decided to wear a hearing system with 2 or 3 microphones, a program is set for focussing on the sound in front of you and attenuating the sound from behind.
