Remote microphone features
Partner microphone (illustration 5): When a single speaker is wearing the
Sound Assist, the device automatically streams the voice of the conversa-
tion partner to the hearing aid.
Tabletop microphone (illustration 6): For a setting with multiple speak-
ers, Sound Assist can be used as a tabletop microphone. When placing
the device on a flat surface, e.g. on the table at a dinner party, it will
automatically stream the voices to the hearing aid.
If you want to focus on a single speaker, it is possible to lock the listening
direction and manually point at the speaker you want to listen to. To lock
the listening direction, press and hold the push-button (1.4) until the top
in-use light indicator is solid green. The direction will be locked regardless
of device orientation. Press and hold the push-button again to unlock the
listening direction.
Muting the microphones
In all remote microphone scenarios, the microphones can be muted and
unmuted by briefly pressing the push-button (1.4).
Bluetooth streaming features
In Bluetooth mode, the Sound Assist can be used for handsfree phone
calls and audio streaming from a connected Bluetooth device to your
hearing aid (illustration 3).
