1 ) Check instructions for correct 

connections and, if possible, check  

the hearing device with a known 

working hearing loop.

2

) Ensure loop tester has a new set 

 

of batteries.

I can hear 

interference 

through 

speakers 

(buzzing / 

whistling /  

hissing).

1) Unscreened or poorly earthed 

third party equipment is being used 

in close proximity.

2) Internal volume gain set to high.

 

 

 

3

) Incorrect power supply being 

used.

1) Switch off any third party 

 

equipment to identify the source of 

interference.

2) Access the amplifier engineers 

mode to adjust the internal settings.

 

 

3) Ensure that our grounded power 

 

supply unit is connected.

Amplifier goes 

into feedback.

1

) Internal volume gain set to high.

 

 

2) Microphone positioned too close 

to speaker.

1

) Access the amplifier engineers 

mode to adjust the internal settings.

 

2) Move the microphone to a 

 

location further from the speaker.

Unit does not

go into power  

saving mode.

1) Ambient noise in area is too high.

1) Switch off any air con systems, 

desktop fans and or computers to 

reduce ambient noise.
