4. In group conversations
Group situations are usually accompanied by a greater degree of background noise, and
are, therefore, naturally more difficult to cope with. In such situations, therefore, focus
your attention on the person you want to hear. If you miss a word, ask the speaker to
repeat.
5. Using the telephone
When using the telephone tilt the receiver edge lightly on your
cheek-bone in order to let the sound flow directly into the hearing
instrument microphone opening. This way, the hearing ïnstrument
will not whistle and you ensure the best conditions to under-
stand the conversation. When you have the receiver in this posi-
tion, remember to speak directly into the microphone on the
telephone in order to ensure good understanding in the
opposite “end of the line”.
If you find it difficult to use the telephone, ask your Hearing Care Professional for more
information regarding the Oticon ConnectLine system and other available accessories.
6. Wireless and mobile phones
Your hearing instrument is designed to comply with the most stringent Standards of
International Electromagnetic Compatibility. However not all mobile phones are hearing
instrument compatible. The varying degree of disturbance can be due to the nature of
your particular mobile phone.
If you find it difficult to obtain a good result while using your mobile telephone, your
Hearing Care Professional should be able to give you advice on available accessories to
enhance listening capabilities.
If you find it difficult to obtain a good result while using your mobile telephone, ask your
