Putting your hearing aids on your ears
Your hearing aids will be color-coded with a dot
on the outside of the hearing aid:
red = right ear; blue = left ear.
Hearing aids with domes
1. Place the hearing aid over
the top of your ear.
2. Hold the wire where it
attaches to the dome and
gently push the dome into
your ear canal. The wire
should lie flush against your
head and not stick out.
3. If there is a retention piece,
place it in your ear so it
rests at the bottom of the
opening of your ear canal.
