5. Telecoil use in church, theatre, or cinema
An increasing number of churches, theatres and public buildings often have loop
systems installed. These systems send out wireless sound to be received by the
telecoil in your hearing instrument. Typically, a sign will let you know whether the
place has a loop system. Ask your Hearing Care Professional for details.
6. 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 microphone on the telephone in
order to ensure good understanding in the opposite "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.
