Tone and AGCo controls
The tone and AGCo controls are to be adjusted by audiologists only.
When fitting the Divino, the audiologist will set the tone and AGCo controls
to suit your needs by increasing or decreasing the low frequency output
and/or compression threshold.
The AGCo ensures a wearer will not be startled by sudden, loud noises and limits
distortion, improving sound quality in loud environments.
Telephones and mobiles
When using telephones, including mobiles, with your Baha Divino
hold the receiver in the normal manner, but close to the microphone inlet
of the sound processor instead of close to your ear. It is important that
neither you, nor the phone, touch the sound processor as this may cause
feedback (whistling).

take a shower as plenty of warm water and soap on the area will help to soften
any crust that may have developed. A soft brush is provided together with your
sound processor for this purpose.
During the first weeks, after the dressing is removed, cleaning with the soft brush
may feel a little rough. If so, use a strip of baby wipe until your skin becomes less
sensitive and you can use the brush comfortably. The soft brush can be used with
any mild soap or shampoo and plenty of warm water.
When you brush, aim the bristles at the side of the abutment rather than at the
skin. Your focus should be to remove crust and debris from around the base of
