Abstract

See full text

The method for operating a hearing device (11) comprises the steps of a) setting a minimum amplification or output level of said hearing device (11); b) upon receiving a request to reduce an amplification or output level of said hearing device below said minimum amplification or output level: generating an alert and/or preventing the execution of the requested reduction. Preferably, step a) is carried out upon receiving certain data in said hearing device (11). Such data can be generated by a device (2) installed in an automobile, e.g., a car stereo (2). The minimum amplification or output level can be selectively applied to signals originating from the acoustic environment of a user of the hearing device. A corresponding hearing system (10) and a corresponding arrangement (11) are disclosed, too. In a further aspect, the invention comprises the use of a user control (29) installed in an automobile for controlling at least one functionality of a hearing device (11).
