small ear canal volume (ECV) indicates that the

briefly remove the probe from the ear before
trying again.

Make sure that the eartip fits well. This will
minimize the risk of blocking the probe tip against
the ear canal wall. A flat tympanogram together
with an abnormally small ear canal volume (ECV)
indicates that the probe is blocked.
A measurement will not auto start if the ear
canal volume reading is less than 0.1.

Any leakage will interrupt the test. The probe will
indicate if there is a leak.
