Using Yuu
™
with the Telephone
Yuu has the ability, depending on hearing loss, vent size
and style of hearing device to provide feedback-free
phone use without program changes. For many wearers
this means, when the phone rings, all you have to do is
pick up the telephone and hold it to your ear normally. In
some situations when using a cell phone, you may
experience digital interference that sounds like static,
buzzing or beeping. If you experience interference,
increase the distance between your hearing instrument
and the phone receiver.
Easy-t for the Telephone or Cell/Mobile Phone
Yuu can also come equipped with an optional easy-t
(automatic telephone switch) that can help you listen on
the telephone. Easy-t automatically switches your
hearing instrument into a telephone listening mode with
hearing instrument compatible phones. You will hear a
short melody to indicate you are in the telephone (easy-t)
program. If your phone is hearing instrument compatible,
it will have a magnetic coil and easy-t will activate
automatically when the telephone is held to the ear. Once
the telephone is removed from the ear, the hearing
instrument will switch back to the normal listening mode.
Since the location and strength of the magnetic coil
varies among phone manufacturers, it may be necessary
