Your Widex Bravo hearing aid is a very intricate,
high precision electronic unit. It has been careful-
ly designed to withstand years of wear, under the
varying conditions the typical user finds them-
selves in each day. However, your hearing aid
may be damaged if exposed to extreme conditions,
severe blows, or general neglect.
To get full satisfaction from the quality and the
performance we have built into your new Widex
hearing aid, please handle it with care, and read
and follow the instructions carefully.
At the back of this manual you will find a trouble-
shooting guide, which will help you in situations
where your hearing aid does not perform accord-
ing to your expectations.
We hope you will be pleased with
your new Widex hearing aid!

Turning the hearing aid
on and off
The battery drawer also func-
tions as the on/off switch.
The hearing aid is turned on
when the switch is pushed
upwards, and off when the
switch is pushed downwards
as illustrated.
The word “OFF” is clearly
visible on the switch when
the aid is turned off.
Please remember to switch
the hearing aid off when it is
not in use. Remove the bat-
tery if the hearing aid will
not be used again soon.

Volume control
Your hearing aid has a digital
volume control, shaped like a
small lever. Push the lever
upwards to raise the volume.
Push the lever downwards to
lower the volume. Use short
touches for minor corrections
of the volume. Faster adjust-
ments are obtained by keep-
ing the lever pressed for
some seconds.
When you raise the volume, you will hear a beep-
tone for each step the volume is raised. When the
maximum adjustment level is reached, a steady
tone will sound until you release the lever.
When you lower the volume, you will hear a deep-
er beep-tone for each step the volume is lowered.
When the minimum adjustment level is reached,
a steady tone will sound until you release the
lever.

Bravo is equipped with a computer which has
been designed to adjust its sound automatically
in accordance with the sound environment around
you.
Several thousand times per second, Bravo analy-
ses the surroundings and tailors its sound accord-
ingly.
Therefore, with this digital instrument you only
need to adjust the volume to obtain an as natural
and comfortable sound as possible.
Any adjustment of the automatic volume setting
will be cancelled when your hearing aid is turned
off. Therefore, you must adjust the volume again,
if desired, each time you turn the hearing aid on.
Note: B32 is a powerful hearing aid. Avoid pro-
longed use at uncomfortably high sound pressure
levels – it might damage your hearing. If the vol-
ume in your hearing aid is uncomfortably loud or
too weak, or if you would like any further infor-
mation, consult the hearing healthcare profes-
sional where you received your hearing aid.

Telecoil (M-MT-T switch)
“M” (microphone): For
normal use, the switch
should be in position “M”
(microphone).
“T” (telecoil): Position “T”
cuts off the microphone and
brings the built-in telecoil
into operation. The hearing
aid can then be used within
any magnetic field or loop
system without background
interference.
A loop system or magnetic
field device can be fitted to a
TV or radio. Some public
places such as churches, theatres, cinemas and
lecture rooms are already equipped with a loop
system.
Ask your hearing healthcare professional for
more information.
9
Note: The magnetic field in some telephones is
inadequate, in which case the “M” position should
be used.
“MT” (microphone+telecoil): If you want to
listen both via the microphone and the telecoil,
place the switch in mid-position “MT” (e.g. when
watching TV while still wanting to hear the door-
bell, telephone, or other persons speaking).
10
Changing the battery
Before inserting a new battery in
your hearing aid, remember to re-
move the adhesive tab. Do not use
batteries on which there is a sticky
residue from the tab or other un-
wanted substance as this can block
the battery airholes.
Push the nail grip downwards
to swing open the battery draw-
er. The nail grip is located on
the opposite side of the on/off
switch at the bottom of the
hearing aid.
The battery must be placed
with the plus (+) sign visible, in
accordance with the plus (+)
sign on the battery drawer. If
the battery drawer does not
close easily, the battery is in-
correctly inserted.
When changing batteries, hold the hearing aid
over a table or a carpet to make it easier to find a
dropped hearing aid or battery.
