USING A RECEIVER WITH A HEARING AID
Williams Sound PPA R37 and PPA R35-8 receivers can be used
with hearing aids using three different methods:
NECKLOOP TELECOIL COUPLER
Neckloops are cords which hang around the neck and couple mag-
netically with T-Coil equipped hearing aids.
SILHOUETTE TELECOIL COUPLER
These telecoil couplers are worn behind the ear, right next to tele-
coil-equipped hearing aids.
DIRECT AUDIO INPUT (DAI) CORD
Direct Audio Input cords can be used with compatible hearing aids
as well as with Cochlear Implant Processors.
SUGGESTIONS FOR RECEIVER MANAGEMENT
Different types of facilities will use different approaches for
receiver management and earphone sanitation. Below are some
options that customers have used successfully.
þ Regular users purchase their own receiver and take care of
their own batteries and earphone.
þ Some facilities label the receiver and earphone with the names
of regular users so each person uses the same receiver and
earphone.
þ Ushers issue receivers to people who request them. Earphones
are sanitized after use. Foam ear cushions can be replaced or
washed with a mild detergent, rinsed thoroughly and air-dried.
The EAR 022 Surround Earphone can be sanitized with an
alcohol pad.
þ The receivers can be stored in a multiple compartment storage
case with a credit card or driver's license left as collateral for
the receiver.
þ Regular users purchase their own earphone or headphone and
bring them to use with receivers at the facility.
