Putting your Hearing Instruments on
Your Ears
Your Shift hearing instruments may be color-coded red
for your right ear and blue for your left ear. This color
indicator is located inside the battery door.

gently push the dome into your ear canal. The tube
should lie flush against your head and not stick out.

3. Place the retention piece in your ear so it rests at the
bottom of the opening of your ear canal.
Shift™ with Custom Shells

should fit into your ear snugly and comfortably. The
tube should lie flush against your head and not stick
out.
