Telephones and mobiles
Hold the telephone or mobile "upside down" close to the microphone (using
the M program) or close to the telecoil (if using the MT or T program) as seen
to the left. The telecoil is placed vertically, close to the electrical input. Please
note the magnetic field from many modern phones is not strong enough to
be picked up by the telecoil. Some phones can be equipped with a neck-loop
to reinforce the magnetic field. It is important that neither you, nor the phone,
touches the sound processor as this may cause feedback ("whistling").

Care and maintenance
Cleaning the abutment area
When the last dressing has been removed and the abutment is exposed
hygiene continues to be very important.
Daily care
On a daily basis the area around the abutment should be cleaned to avoid
debris build-up. This build-up around the base of the abutment is not a scab
and must be removed. Cleaning this area is most easily done when you bath
or take a shower as plenty of warm water and soap on the area will help to
soften any crust that may have developed around the base of the abutment.
The soft brush, which was provided with your sound processor, should be
used for cleaning.
During the first weeks, after the dressing is removed, cleaning with the soft
brush may feel a little rough. If so, use a strip of baby wipe until your skin
becomes less sensitive and you can use the brush comfortably. The soft brush
can be used with any mild soap or shampoo and plenty of warm water.
