1. General

The Mobile Inductive Loopset LPS-4 for people with hearing aids is
developed to facilitate the use of a compatible mobile phone
together with T-coil equipped hearing aids.

When using the inductive loopset, you can speak directly to the
microphone inside it. You do not need to hold a mobile phone near
your ear, but you can carry it using a carrying case, belt clip, or other
accessory. The loopset does not require any separate batteries.

The operation of the device is based on induction technology used in
public places: a loop system sends out sounds wirelessly to be picked
up by the telecoil of the hearing aid that is switched to the T mode.

The device described in this guide is compatible with phones with a
Pop-Port™ interface connector (for example, the Nokia 6681 and
Nokia 6682 mobile phones).

The inductive loopset can also be connected to the speech processor
of a compatible cochlear implant by using the audio output
connector.

Read this user guide carefully before using the loopset. Also read the
user guide for your phone, which provides important safety and
maintenance information. Keep the loopset out of reach of small
children.

solutions, visit our Web site at http://www.nokiaaccessibility.com/.

Using the loopset

Notes

• The lead does not need to be connected to the Pop-Port connector
of the phone all the time. You can choose to connect it only when
you wish to make or receive calls.

• When you receive a call, both the phone and the loopset sound an
alert if the lead is connected to the phone and if the hearing aid is
in the T or MT mode.

• To adjust the volume of the loopset, use the volume keys of the
phone. For normal use, keep the volume low, where you can
clearly hear your own voice. In a noisy environment or if the
received speech is weak, increase the volume so that the
background noise becomes weaker and the caller’s voice becomes
stronger.

■ Connect the loopset to external devices

The loopset can be connected to a compatible
speech processor of a cochlear implant or to the
audio input of a hearing aid. Contact your hearing
aid specialist for the compatibility with your
cochlear implant or hearing aid, the correct
connection cable, and instructions on the use of the
connection cable.

Connect the plug of the external device to the audio
output connector with the symbol on the right
side of the loopset device.

Care and maintenance

Care and maintenance

Your device is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be
treated with care. The suggestions below will help you protect your warranty
coverage.

• Keep the device out of the reach of small children.

• Keep the device dry. Precipitation, humidity, and all types of liquids or
moisture can contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits. If your
device does get wet, allow the device to dry completely.

• Do not use or store the device in dusty, dirty areas. Its electronic
components can be damaged.

• Do not store the device in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the
life of electronic devices and warp or melt certain plastics.

• Do not store the device in cold areas. When the device returns to its
normal temperature, moisture can form inside the device and damage
electronic circuit boards.

• Do not attempt to open the device.

• Do not drop, knock, or shake the device. Rough handling can break
internal circuit boards and fine mechanics.

• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to
clean the device.

• Do not paint the device. Paint can clog the moving parts and prevent
proper operation.

If the device is not working properly, take it to the nearest authorized service
facility for service.
