Your hearing care professional can design a telephone programme that you can switch to when using the
phone. This programme is designed to ease listening on a phone. If you have a hearing instrument with a
programme button, you can switch to this programme manually. Your hearing care professional can also
enable the Auto-Phone function to switch to the telephone programme automatically.
Auto Phone - optional (not for IIC customs)
The Auto Phone function, allows your hearing instrument to automati-
cally switch to your telephone programme when a telephone receiver
is raised to the ear. When the telephone receiver is removed from
the ear, the hearing instrument automatically returns to the previous
listening programme.
Placement of Auto Phone magnets
Place Auto Phone magnet on your telephone receiver to allow operation of the Auto Phone function. In order
to place Auto Phone magnet properly:
1. Clean the telephone receiver thoroughly.
2. Hold the telephone vertically, in a position similar to when making a telephone call.
3. Place the magnets just below the telephone receiver. Make sure not to cover the microphone openings.
If necessary, move the magnet to another position to improve ease of use and comfort while speaking.
4. If you are not satisfied with the strength of Auto Phone, you can reposition the Auto Phone magnet or
add additional Auto Phone magnets.

Only use recommended cleaning agent to clean the telephone prior to placing the magnet on the
phone in order to obtain best possible adherence.
Auto Phone warnings
i
Keep magnets out of reach of pets, children and mentally challenged persons. If a magnet is swallowed,
please seek advice from a medical practitioner.
The magnet may affect some medical devices or electronic systems. The manufacturer of any magneti-
cally sensitive devices (e.g. pacemakers) should advise you regarding appropriate safety precautions when
using your hearing instrument and magnet in close proximity to the medical device or electronic system in
question.
If the manufacturer cannot issue a statement, we recommend keeping the magnet or a telephone equipped
with the magnet 30 cm (12”) away from magnetically sensitive devices (e.g. pacemakers).
Auto Phone precautions
i
High distortion during dialing or phoning may mean that the magnet is not in the optimal position relative
to the telephone receiver. To avoid the issue, please move the magnet to another place on the telephone
receiver.
Only use magnets supplied by Beltone.
