If the hearing instrument does not switch to the
telephone program automatically when the telephone
receiver is placed in proximity, the magnet for easy-t
hearing instruments should be attached to the telephone

compatible telephones.
To affix the easy-t magnet:
1. Clean the telephone receiver.
2. Hold the magnet near the “listening end” of your
