Some telephones produce a magnetic field strong enoughto activate your EasyPhone function. Most types oftelephones require an additional magnet fixed on thereceiver to activate this function.

Fixing the EasyPhone magnetClean the telephone handsetthoroughly.Hold the telephone handset nearlyvertically, similarly to makinga telephone call. Hold the magnetnear to the “listening end” of yourtelephone handset and release it.The magnet will automatically flipto the correct side.


32

If you hold the telephonereceiver in your right handwhen making telephonecalls, position the magnet inthe upper right half of thereceiver.If you hold the telephonereceiver in your left handwhen making telephonecalls, position the magnetin the upper left half ofthe receiver.

Use the double-sided adhesivetape to stick the magnet tothe location described above.Do not cover the soundopenings of your handset.

Instead of holding the phoneagainst your ear canal hold theearpiece of the phone againstthe microphone, which is at thefront of your hearing system.

Operation

33

Use of EasyPhoneUse the telephone in a normal manner. An acousticsignal indicates the activation of the EasyPhoneprogram. At the beginning, you may need to move thehandset slightly to find the optimum position for areliable switching and comfortable hearing.

If necessary, move the magnet to another position onthe handset to increase your comfort of use.

Keep magnets out of reach of children and pets.If a magnet is swallowed, please seek the adviceof a medical practitioner.The magnet used to strengthen the magneticfield of your phone may affect some medicaldevices or electronic systems.Always keep the magnet (or the telephoneequipped with the magnet) at least 30 cm (12”)away from pacemakers, credit cards, floppy disksor other magnetically sensitive devices.Too high distortion during dialing or phoningmay mean that the phone receiver is stressed bythe magnet. To avoid any damage, please movethe magnet to another place on the telephonereceiver.
