Help and advice
When using a telephone that has a built in inductive coupler with a hearing aid set to the 'T' position it is important to hold the telephone earpiece as close as possible to the magnetic pick-up within your hearing aid. Even a small change in position can make a big difference. Hold the telephone handset very close to, or even touching, your hearing aid and move it slowly up, down, left and right until you get the best signal (you could listen to the dialling tone sound to compare the signal received from different positions).1
If your not sure whether your telephone has an inductive coupler look for a label on the underside of the phone or on its original box saying 'hearing aid compatible' or 'inductive coupler' with an ear symbol (as shown above).
Most cordless telephones now use digital technology (DECT: Digital Enhanced Cordless Transmission) which can cause interference with older analogue hearing aids (newer hearing aids tend to be digital).1,2 Consequently if you do use an analogue hearing aid and are thinking about purchasing a cordless telephone we recommend you try using the phone with your hearing aid in a shop before purchase.
