T-coil (Handset only)
Digital spread spectrum cordless phones generate magnetic
signals that could cause noise to be heard by users wearing
hearing aids set to “T” mode. (The “T” mode is only found on
hearing aids equipped with a telecoil (“T” coil) feature). This
phone includes a special “T-coil” mode that, when activated,
reduces the magnetic noise generated by the handset.
To activate the “T-coil” mode perform the following steps on your
handset:
While on a call:
Press and hold MUTE for at least 5 seconds or until a beep
tone is heard.
The “T-coil” mode icon will appear on the handset LCD
display.
The handset will remain in “T-coil” mode for all future calls or
until the “T-coil” mode is turned off.
