Operation
Telecoil and Manual Switching
Hearing instruments with a
manual telecoil allow you to
switch the devices to telephone
mode when needed.
Manually switched telecoils
are activated by choosing the
telecoil setting using the switch.
General Telephone Use
Some hearing instruments
work best by holding the
phone close to, but not fully
covering your ear. In some
instances, if you encounter
whistling (feedback), tilt the
receiver at an angle until the
whistling stops. Additionally,
the hearing instrument in the
non-phone ear (ear opposite
the phone) may switch to a
telephone setting to reduce
background sounds. Your
hearing professional can
provide instructions and
techniques for your
specific needs.
