Provox Electrolarynx Operating Instruction

Setting the mode

• To change the mode, first remove the battery cap, then press both the mode button (M) and the power button (C).
• The mode changes immediately, but if you continue to hold the power button, the device will beep to indicate the new mode setting.
• The number of beeps and the tone of the beeps indicate which mode it is in.

Choosing sound head

• If you have hard neck tissue or are in a loud environment. The grey sound head can be used because of its sharper sound.

Using the sound head spacer (B)

• If you regularly use a higher tone and prefer the tonal qualities without a sound head spacer, you may remove it.

Charging battery

• Insert micro-USB into the USB charge jack (V) with an approved plug for wall charging.
• Check that the LED indicator light (L) is lit.

Atos Electrolarynx neck placement

• Place the sound head (A) against your neck and activate the power button (C).

• Speak as sound is carried into your mouth. Do not force air out.
• Ensure an airtight seal between the sound head and your neck.
• Try different positions until you get the best sound. Note that even a 3 mm / 1/8" position change can have a great impact on the sound volume.
• If you cannot achieve sound transmission through your neck or place the device against your neck for medical reasons, try cheek placement or use the oral adapter.
