Stand-By Function; Telephone Use - ReSound BTe ZG71-dVi User Manual

stand-by Function

In stand-by mode, the hearing instrument will not process sound or
deliver an acoustic signal to the ear. When in this mode, a small amount
of power will be used. To put the instrument in stand-by mode, hold
down the programme selector for 5 seconds. You will hear a series of
beeps and the device will be in stand-by mode. To return to standard
mode, press the programme selector once. This can only be done after
at least 5 seconds in the stand-by mode.

Telephone Use

Your can use the telephone with your
hearing instruments. Using the telephone
while using your hearing instruments may
require some practice.
By selecting the optional telecoil programme
you can improve understanding of speech
when using a telecoil compatible phone.
Rather than picking up the sound from the telephone, this programme
only picks up the telephone's magnetic signal and converts
it to sound. Your hearing care professional can activate the telecoil.

When using the telecoil programme, the receiver of the telephone
should be held as shown in the drawing. You may need to move the
handset around slightly to find the best reception.
If you do not wish to have a telecoil programme, you may still use the
phone while using your hearing instrument. Hold the phone close to
the front microphone of the hearing instrument, but not directly on it.
If it whistles, it may take a few seconds for the instrument to adapt.
If the whistling continues, move the telephone 2-3 cm away from
your ear. Some hearing instruments also have an acoustic telephone
program. This program might decrease problems with acoustic feed-
back when using the telephone.
Using tele-loop systems
Many gathering places such as schools, theatres and houses of wor ship,
are equipped with tele-loop systems. To take advantage of such
a system, select the telecoil program to pick up direct sound. If the
hearing instrument goes dead when the telecoil program is selected,
the tele-loop system may not be turned on or not operating correctly.
If a school, theatre or house of worship does not have a tele-loop
system, try to sit as close as possible to the front and use one of the
microphone programmes.
