best by holding the phone close

to, but not fully covering your

ear� In some instances, if you

encounter whistling (feedback),

tilt the receiver at an angle until

the whistling stops� Additionally,

the hearing instrument in the

non-phone ear (ear opposite

the phone) may switch to a

telephone setting to reduce

background sounds� Your

hearing professional can provide

instructions and techniques for

your speciﬁc needs�

Ear-to-Ear Phone Streaming

The telephone memory in your hearing instrument

may be equipped with an ear-to-ear phone streaming

option� When you enter your telephone memory, the

audio from your telephone will be streamed from

the phone ear’s hearing instrument to the opposite

ear’s hearing instrument� This allows you to hear the

telephone conversation in both ears� Ask your hearing

professional about your particular telephone settings�
