Stand-By Function; Telephone Use; Using Tele-Loop Systems - ReSound Ziga Lite ZL-61 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

You 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 feedback 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.
