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 con-
verts 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 nd the best reception.
Tele-loop systems
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.
functionality of some medical devices or electronic systems. Always keep the magnet or
a telephone equipped with the magnet at least 30 cm (12”) away from pacemakers, credit
cards and other magnetically sensitive devices.
3. High distortion during dialing or phoning may mean that the magnet is not in the optimal
position relative to the telephone receiver. To avoid the issue, please move the magnet to
another place on the telephone receiver.
4. Only use magnets supplied by GN ReSound.
