Hearing Aid Benefits

Congratulations on your purchase of the extremely-

comfortable, incredibly-discreet, and fullyfeatured

ionTM open ear hearing aid from Sonic. ionTM

incorporates our advanced digital processor for more

lifelike sound. With ionTM, you will be able to enjoy more

natural sound quality in a wide variety of listening

situations without the isolation commonly experienced

with traditional hearing aids.

Your hearing aid has been programmed to fit your

hearing and communication needs. If you require

programming changes, your hearing healthcare

professional can make adjustments to improve the

sound.

Please review this user guide carefully. It contains

information on the use and care of your hearing aid. With

proper use and care, your hearing aid will improve your

connection with the world around you.

IONTM USER GUIDE

Hearing Expectations

Set Appropriate Expectations

It is important that you have the right expectations

regarding your hearing aids. Hearing aids will give you

better hearing, but they are not a cure for hearing loss.

People whose expectations are too high (“I thought

they would make my hearing normal”) are likely to be

disappointed and may give up.

Hearing Aids Can:

• Help you hear and understand better in most

situations.

• Allow you to participate more in group situations

and meetings.

Hearing Aids Cannot:

• Give you normal hearing.

Hearing Aids May Not:

• Let you hear very soft sounds.

• Block ALL background noises–especially in noisy

groups. (Even people without hearing loss may

have difficulty hearing in the presence of back-

ground noise.)

SONIC

Be Patient

Unlike eyeglasses, which correct your vision as soon

as you first put them on, hearing aids need some time

for proper adjustment. It may take several weeks or

months to completely adjust to your hearing aids, so try

to be patient. During the first week or so, try different

listening situations, such as one-on-one conversations

with family and friends and conversations with two

or three people at home or in quiet settings. Also, try

having conversations in noisier places like parties,

restaurants, meetings, and outdoors. But do not forget

that some situations are simply too noisy in general

– even for people without hearing loss. So, do not get

discouraged.

Consistent use of your hearing aid is strongly recom-

mended. In most cases, infrequent use does not allow

you to obtain the full benefit from your aid.

The use of a hearing aid is only a part of total hearing

rehabilitation, and may need to be supplemented by

auditory training and instruction in lip reading.
