Proper Placement On/In the Ear
If you are wearing hearing instruments on both ears, it is important to use the correct devise in
each ear. The sound tubes or molds are marked with ‘red’ lettering for the right ear, and ‘blue’
lettering for the left ear. Your hearing instrument should fit comfortably and easily in or over the
top of your ears. Your hearing healthcare provider will provide instruction on proper insertion and
removal.
Use the following instructions if you own an Open Fit hearing instrument with a flex tube
(Sound Tube) and ear bud. See pictures on
top
of next page.
1.
Place the hearing instrument over the top of your ear.
2.
Hold the sound tube where it attaches to the ear bud (where it bends) and gently push the
ear bud into your canal until it is just inside your ear canal (the tube should be flush
against your head).
3.
Place the retention guard of the sound tube into the bowl of your concha.
To turn your hearing instrument “on”, you simply need to close the battery door after inserting a
battery. To turn your hearing instrument “off”, open the battery door completely.
