Telephone use

Your hearing aid allows you to use the telephone as you ordinarily do. Finding the optimal position for
holding a telephone may require practice. One or more of the following suggestions may be helpful:
1. Hold the telephone up to your ear.
2. Hold the telephone towards the top of the ear (closer to where the
microphones are).
3. If whistling occurs, it may take a few seconds of holding the telephone
in the same position before the hearing aid eliminates the feedback.
4. Whistling may stop by holding the telephone slightly away from the
ear.
i
NOTE: Depending on your individual needs, your hearing care profes-
sional may activate a program specifically for telephone use.
