8 Telephone use
With a hearing aid you are able to use a phone in a number of ways.
8.1 Normal use
To nd the best way to use a telephone or smartphone while wearing
your hearing aids may require pracce. One or more of the following
suggesons may be helpful:
1. Hold the telephone towards the ear (close to the hearing aid’s
microphone)
2. If whistling occurs, it may take a few seconds of holding the telephone
in the same posion before the hearing aid eliminates the whistling
3. Whistling may also be stopped by holding the telephone slightly away
from the ear

NOTE: Depending on your individual needs, your hearing care
professional may acvate a programme specically for telephone use.
8.2 Telecoil (only Ambio model 62)
Your hearing aids contain a telecoil. The Telecoil programme may help
to improve speech understanding with Hearing Aid Compable (HAC)
telephones and in theaters, cinemas, houses of worship etc. that have a
hearing loop installed.
When you switch on the Telecoil programme, your hearing aids pick up
signals from the hearing loop or HAC telephone.
Your hearing care professional can acvate the Telecoil programme.
i
NOTE: The telecoil cannot work without a hearing loop
(aka inducon-loop) or a HAC telephone.
NOTE: If you are having trouble hearing with the hearing loop, ask you
hearing care professional to adjust the programme.
NOTE: If there is no sound from the hearing aids in a hearing loop
system and an acve Telecoil programme, the hearing loop system
may not be turned on or is not operang correctly.
NOTE: The sound from the hearing loop and the hearing aids’
microphones can be mixed to your preference - either during the
ng session or via your smartphone app or your Remote Control 2.
8.2.1 Hearingloopsystems
To use hearing loop systems, follow these steps:
1. Switch your hearing aid to the Telecoil programme
2. Find a good spot. Recepon is not clear in all locaons; it depends on
the hearing loop. Look for signs or nd another spot to sit
3. If needed, adjust the volume
4. When you leave, switch to your preferred programme
8.2.2 HAC telephone
Some smartphones are hearing aid compable (HAC). The HAC phone
establishes a small hearing loop that your hearing aids connect to.

To use the HAC telephone, follow these steps:
1. Switch your hearing aid to the Telecoil programme
2. Pick up the telephone and place a call or answer a call
3. Hold the telephone close to the hearing aid, and lt it slightly
outwards
4. Listen to the dial tone and move the telephone to get the best
recepon
5. If needed, adjust the volume
6. When you hang up, switch to your preferred programme
