The CONTACTA RX30 receiver can be set to a high volume. To protect your hearing or the hearing of people with unimpaired hearing, particularly of children, from any damage caused by excessively loud volume, please observe the following information:

1. Set the volume to low before using the receiver.

2. While using the device, set the volume to a level that is comfortable for you.

This product is equipped with a built-in activated T-Coil coupler, designed to receive signals transmitted by hearing loop systems. The sound signal received by the device can be heard via a headset or earphones connected to its sound output. The sound volume level can be adjusted to your preferred level.

The sound quality you will experience will greatly depend on the performance of the hearing loop system you will be listening to, and the headset/earphones quality. It is recommended to use the manufacturer’s compatible headset or earphones. These may be included with the device.

Place the headset over both ears and adjust the side arms until you have a comfortable fit. Ensure the headset is plugged into the CONTACTA RX30 Hearing Loop Listener via the 3.5mm audio jack.

The control wheel can be used to switch the device on and also to control the volume. The red LED will light up when the device is switched on.

Hold the CONTACTA RX30 in a vertical position, adjust holding height to find the optimum sound level and quality (this can vary depending on the installed hearing loop location), this can be achieved using either the lanyard or belt clip provided with this kit. Changing the angle of the device could reduce the sound level and its quality.

Make sure that the hearing loop system and the sound source connected to it are switched on.

Adjust the volume of the CONTACTA RX30 Hearing Loop Listener to a comfortable level. The bass cut switch can be used to optimize sound.
