Echo MegaLoop Manual - page 6
IMPORTANT
The
MegaLoop +
TM
microphone is very sensitive and too much volume out of the TV speaker can distort the sound
in your hearing aid when in the
“T” position. The TV speaker’s volume should be set at a level comfortable for a
person with average heari ng.
Microphone priority function
The microphone sockets (12) are marked
(1) and (P). Socket No. (1) Is the standard socket to use when
connecting the microphone to a TV of Hi-fi speaker. Socket
(P) stands for priority and gives a louder signal than
socket
(1) this is very useful when using a second microphone for environmental sounds that must be heard over
and above the TV or Hi-fi.
Tone Control (3)
Adjust to suit your own hearing loss. Turning the control in an anti-clockwise direction tones become
lower.
Turning clockwise the tones become
higher. Most people like the Tone (3) at about 12 o ’clock position.
Headphone Socket (4)
Any standard headphon es or Echo
®
NeckLoop can be connected.
Always turn volume control (2) fully anti-
clockwise to
“Low” position before connecting any headphones or Echo neck loop, then adjust upwards to a
comfortable sound level.
If you do not follow these instructions you could damage your hearing! Remember
to turn your hearing aid to the ‘T’ position when using a neck loop
