Your hearing inruments
This user guide describes optional features that
your hearing inruments may or may not have.
Ask your Hearing Care Professional to indicate the
features that are valid for your hearing inruments.
Inrument type
Your hearing inruments are BTE (Behind-The-Ear)
models. A tube delivers the sound from the hearing
inrument into the ear. The inruments are not intended
for children under the age of 3 years or persons with a
developmental age of under 3 years.
Getting to know your hearing inruments 
It is recommended to familiarize yourself with your new
hearing inruments. With the inruments in your hand
try using the controls and note their location on the
inrument. This will make it easier for you to feel and
press the controls while wearing the hearing inruments.
If you have problems pressing the controls of your
hearing inruments while wearing them, you can
ask your Hearing Care Professional whether a
remote control option is available.

Inserting and removing the hearing inruments
Your hearing inruments have been ne-tuned for your
right and left ear. Colored markers indicate the
side:
red marker = right ear
blue marker = left ear

XHold the tube close to the ear piece.
XCarefully push the ear piece
into the ear canal .
XTwi it slightly until it sits
well.

to avoid accumulation of air
in the ear canal.

your ear .

into the ear.

It may be helpful to insert the right hearing
inrument with the right hand and the left
hearing inrument 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.

ear piece in your ear. To position the retention rand:

position it carefully into the
bottom of the bowl of your ear
(refer to the picture).
