Telecoil (optional)
If equipped, a telecoil can be activated by your hearing care professional and accessed through one of
the additional programmes. A telecoil picks up a telephone’s magnetic signal and converts it to sound. An
optional telephone programme may help to improve speech understanding on the telephone. When using
a telecoil programme, the receiver of the telephone may need to be held closer to the hearing instrument.
The handset of the telephone may need to be moved to slightly different positions in order to find the best
reception.
Tele-loop systems (optional)
Many places, such as theatres, houses of worship, and schools are equipped with tele-loop systems.
When using a telecoil programme with tele-loop systems, sound is picked up directly and may improve
speech understanding. If there is no sound from the hearing instruments in a tele-loop system and with a
telecoil programme activated, the tele-loop system may not be turned on or is not operating correctly. If
a facility is not equipped with a tele-loop system, sitting as close as possible to the front may be helpful.
Direct Audio Input (optional)
Use of Direct Audio Input (DAI), which enables a direct connection of the hearing instruments to items such
as television, radio, and remote microphones, may increase speech understanding for some individuals.
The sound source is connected to the hearing instruments by a cable or a wireless FM system to the audio
boot. This accessory connects to the bottom of the hearing instruments, and once properly clicked into
place, the hearing instruments switch to DAI automatically.
