What Is Q - ExSilent Q Mode D'emploi

What is Q?

The Q is a so-called modular (same for each
ear) CIC* device with a standard fitting, called
soft tip.
For the power supply, a cell battery of type
10 (yellow sticker) is required. The device is
provided with an advanced microprocessor,
which ensures the processing and amplification
of the sound, adapted to your particular
hearing problem.
* Completely In the Canal

The Q uses a soft tip with Large-Medium-
Small sizes. The size of the soft tip depends
on the size of your ear canal. The choice for
a good size is extremely important. If the
soft tip is too large, the device might become
less comfortable to wear. If the soft tip is too
small, the device might exhibit spontaneous
whistling. During fitting, your dispenser will
try to find out the size of soft tip that suits you
best.
One of the most occurring reasons for
reparation is damaging or clogging of the
speaker due to ear wax. The Q has a built-in
system that prevents the intrusion of ear wax
into the device. As a result, the components
in the module will always remain undamaged
and unclogged. In case the soft tip will be
clogged, it can easily be cleaned or replaced.
The Q is provided with a microprocessor
including the following characteristics:
• An adaptive 'antifeedback' system – this
prevents spontaneous 'whistling' of the
device.
• An adaptive 'noise reduction' system – this
improves the hearing performance in noisy
environments.
• Four different memories – this means that
you may use up to 4 different settings while
programming the Q. You may request your
dispenser to program to your special needs
(such as a special setting for listening to
music or a setting where the Q serves as a
damper).
As a result of the combination of size, shape,
innovative construction and material, Q offers
a range of important advantages:
• Almost invisible.
• Minimal distortion of your own voice
(occlusion).
• High sound gain by positioning of the
speaker close to the ear drum.
• Natural sound, with high directional
hearing thanks to an empty auricle, and
minimum wind noise thanks to deep
microphone positioning.
• Protects against damage caused by ear
wax.
• Suitable for cell phone use.
• Suitable for sporting activities.
• Easy to use and maintain.
• Contemporary design.
