Operating Instructions

Your Passport BTE hearing instrument comes with 2
controls that allow you to further adjust your Passport
hearing instrument – a lever and a push button.
Lever
The lever on your hearing instruments can be set
up as either a volume control, or a smartFocus
control.
Volume Control
If the lever has been configured as a volume control,
you can adjust the loudness of your hearing
instruments by pushing the volume control lever in to
increase the loudness and pressing the volume
control lever down to decrease the loudness. The
optional remote control also allows you to adjust your
volume levels; please refer to the Smart Control User
Guide for more information.
As you change the volume level, your hearing
instruments will beep. Please refer to the chart below
to learn more about the different volume beeps.

If duoLink is enabled, the hearing instrument can also
be set so that by changing the volume on one hearing
instrument, both will be adjusted.
Your Passport hearing instruments will learn your
volume control adjustments in different environments
while the hearing instruments are set to the automatic
program, if this feature has been enabled by your
hearing healthcare professional. Over time, the
hearing instruments will adjust the default volume
settings in the automatic program to the levels that
you typically use.
Your hearing healthcare professional can help you
identify your different volume control settings.
SmartFocus™
If the lever has been configured as a smartFocus, push
the lever in to improve the clarity of sounds in front of
you, such as speech. For greater overall listening
comfort in noisy listening situations, press the lever
down. Each step will change the hearing instrument
performance. Sometimes multiple steps are required
to achieve the desired listening results. After each
step wait for about 4-5 seconds to allow the hearing
instrument to adjust to the new setting.
As you change the smartFocus level, your hearing
instruments will beep. Please refer to the chart below
