the option of making any necessary adjustments to the volume, tone and overall sound quality in the hearing aid itself. A simple remote control will provide you with volumes for adjusting both ear buttons, changing the tone or overall pitch, program buttons to customize your hearing for later use, numbered buttons that allow you to recall anything you have programmed into the remote and an indicator to let you know when your battery life is getting low. Most of the simple remotes will have the same sets of features, although there may be a couple more added in there depending on the manufacturer. Some of the remotes will come equipped with buttons for quiet, party, telephone and restaurant. Each one of the buttons allows you to be able to change the memory on the inside of your device to one of the programs that are pre-set for various listening situations. If you are having difficulty hearing at a restaurant or party, you can try pushing the button on your remote that relates to that specific environment to see if you are able to hear everything around you better. Once you have made the changes on your hearing aid remote, you need to wait a few minutes to allow your brain to adjust to the different settings. Slowly go through the options until you find the one that works for your specific situation. Every one of the settings on your remote can be adjusted by your provider, including the one that allows you to change your volume levels. Always make sure that you have your remote control on you. If you have forgotten what you have programmed on your remote, you will need to make an appointment with your provider to discuss all of the features on your remote and hearing aid.
