Listening in Public Places

Ziel+’s telecoil can also help you listen in public places equippedwith telecoil compatible assistive listening devices such as a loop system. If your hearing instrumentsdo not operatewhen the telecoil is on, the loop system may not be operating or you may be in a “dead” spot. Try positioningyourself in a different part of the looped area or return your hearing instrumentsto the microphone position and sit as close to the speaker as possible.
