To use your Chatsie with an inductive loop:

1. Ensure your hearing aid has a T-coil: Not all hearing aids have this feature, so check with your audiologist or the hearing aid manufacturer.
2. Activate T-mode on your hearing aid: Most hearing aids with a T-coil have a setting (often labeled "T" or "MT") that you need to switch to.
3. Hold the phone near your hearing aid: Position the phone's earpiece close to your hearing aid. You might need to experiment with the exact placement to find the best signal and minimize any potential interference.

While the Chatsie supports inductive loops, the best experience will always depend on the specific hearing aid model and its T-coil's sensitivity, as well as the quality of the inductive loop system itself.
