Using The Telephone - Unitron Quantum Guide

Using the telephone

As telephones do not all work the same, you
may experience different results from different
phones. You can use many phones by simply
holding the receiver to your ear, without the
need to change to a dedicated telephone
program on your hearing aids. Remember to
move the handset slightly up or back to find
the position that sounds best to you.
Depending on the phone type you use, your
hearing healthcare professional might have
selected a dedicated phone program on your
hearing aids. Your hearing aids may have an
automatic telephone program (easy-t
feature), which automatically switches to a
dedicated telephone program when a
telephone receiver is brought close to one of
your hearing aids. You will hear a short
melody to indicate you are in the telephone
(easy-t) program.

When the receiver is moved away from the
hearing aid it will automatically return to the
previous listening program. If DuoLink is
enabled on your hearing aids for the
automatic telephone program, both hearing
aids are synchronized and the listening
program for the opposite ear will also change
when the automatic telephone program is
activated.
If the hearing aid does not switch to the
telephone program automatically when the
telephone receiver is placed in proximity, the
magnet for easy-t hearing aids should be
attached to the telephone receiver. The
magnet is designed to strengthen the
magnetic field at the ear piece of hearing aid
compatible telephones.
