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.
If your hearing instrument has a telecoil (and your telephone has a built in tele loop) you
can switch into telecoil program in order to improve the sound reception further.
Remember that the telecoil in hearing instrument may pick up disturbing signals from
electronic devices, such as a fax machines, computers, televisions or similar. Make sure
that the hearing instrument has a distance of 2–3 meters to such devices when using the
telecoil program.
7. Wireless and mobile phones
Your hearing instrument is designed to comply with the most stringent Standards of
International Electromagnetic Compatibility. However not all mobile phones are hearing
instrument compatible. The varying degree of disturbance can be due to the nature of
your particular mobile phone.
If you find it difficult to obtain a good result while using your mobile telephone, ask
your Hearing Care Professional for more information regarding the Oticon ConnectLine
system* and other available accessories.

8. Use your hearing instrument all day long
The best way to ensure better hearing is to practice listening until you can wear your
hearing instrument comfortably all day. In most cases, infrequent use of a hearing
instrument does not give you the full benefit. In most cases, you will not get the full
benefit of the hearing instument if you use it infrequently.
Your hearing instrument will not restore normal hearing. Nor will it prevent or improve
a hearing impairment resulting from a physiological condition. What it will give you,
however, is help towards making better use of the hearing ability that you have. If you
have two hearing instruments always wear both.
*Not available for all hearing instruments.
