Inserting and removing the hearing instruments
Your hearing instruments have been fine-tuned for your
right and left ear. The labeling on the hearing instruments
or the color of the hearing instrument indicates the side:
●
red or imprinted "R" = right ear
●
blue or imprinted "L" = left ear
Inserting a hearing instrument:
X
Carefully push the
hearing instrument into
the ear canal. Pay special
attention to the removal
cord indicating the bottom.
X
Twist it slightly until it
sits well.
Open and close
your mouth to avoid
accumulation of air in
the ear canal.
●
It may be helpful to insert the right hearing
instrument with the right hand and the left
hearing instrument with the left hand.
●
If you have problems inserting the ear piece,
use the other hand to gently pull your earlobe
downwards. This opens the ear canal and eases
insertion of the ear piece.
