Programme Selector
Certain hearing instrument models are
equipped with a push button. This en-
ables you to have up to three listening
programmes, each of them suitable for
different situations. The number of pro-
grammes available will vary depending
on the model.
If you have an ITE or ITC hearing instrument, your hearing care
professional can programme multiple programmes into your in-
strument. You can select programmes simply by depressing the
programme selector once. You will then hear one, two or three
” beeps”, indicating which programme you have selected. Your
hearing instrument will switch programmes as follows:
Examples:
If you have at least 2 programmes: If you are in the default pro-
gramme, programme 1, press the programme button once to
get to programme 2. You will hear 2 beeps when you are in pro-
gramme 2.
3 programmes: If you are in programme 1, press the programme
button twice to get to programme 3. You will hear 3 beeps when
you are in programme 3.
To get back to programme 1, press the programme button, until
you hear just 1 beep.
You can also get back to programme 1 by turning your instru-
ment off and then on again.

Description of when to use
programme Type
T-programme (Telecoil programme)
Your hearing instrument might have a built in function, the te-
lecoil, which can enable you to hear better on the telephone
and in churches or halls that have an induction loop system in-
stalled in them. In order to activate this function, the telecoil
programme has to be selected. In this programme you typically
will hear no sounds from the microphone, therefore most en-
vironmental sounds will be lost. If you wish, your hearing care
practitioner can change the setting in such a way that you hear
the microphone and the telecoil simultaneously.
Directionality
The ReSound Essence models ES30-D, ES30-DP, ES50-D and
ES50-DP are equipped with two microphones and thus offer
directionality. The purpose of directionality is to enhance
speech understanding in noisy situations. Directionality makes
it easier to hear speech in front of you, while sounds coming
from the back are suppressed. Please ask your hearing care
professional how to activate directionality.
