4. In group conversations
Group situations are usually accompanied by a greater degree of background noise,
and are, therefore, naturally more difficult to cope with. In such situations, focus your
attention on the person you want to hear. If you miss a word, ask the speaker to repeat.
5. Using the telephone
When using the telephone tilt the receiver edge lightly on your
cheek-bone and position the phone slightly over the ear close
to the hearing instrument's microphone. The sound then flows
directly into the hearing instrument's microphone opening. This
way, the hearing instrument will not whistle, and you ensure
the best conditions to understand the conversation. When you
have the receiver in this position, remember to speak directly
into the mouthpiece on the telephone in order to ensure good
understanding on the other "end of the line."
If you find it difficult to use the telephone, ask your Hearing Care Professional for more
information regarding the Oticon ConnectLine system and other available accessories.
