using your phone with a

hearing aid

For best results use the following optimization
procedures and handset setting. They
generally apply as well for users with cochlear
implants:
optimize your handset position and
orientation
While in a phone call slide your phone up and
down, then left and right until best
microphone coupling is obtained. You also
may need to adjust your hearing aid (HA)
volume setting
.
If your HA has a telecoil, activate its switch,
then also rotate the handset as illustrated to
align the telecoils.
Note:
Some automatically switched hearing
aids may need an auxiliary switching magnet.
If you are unsure whether your HA is telecoil
equipped or needs an auxiliary magnet,
please refer to your HA user guide or contact
a hearing aid professional or supplier.
