1. A hearing device comprising:
a switch for powering on the device;
a component for placement on a body of a user of the hearing device; and
control circuitry to execute a feedback algorithm, wherein
the device is configured to monitor a position of the component, and to determine when the component is in an operational position,
the device is configured so that after the device is switched on, the device starts monitoring the position and determines that the component is in the operational position when a feedback loop relating to the component is substantially stable, and
the control circuitry is configured to execute the feedback algorithm when the component is in the operational position.
