inserting the instrument (with dome)
1) Place the hearing instrument behind the ear
2) Hold the flex tube where it bends and gently
push the dome into your ear canal (the dome
should be placed far enough into the ear that
the flex tube lies flush with your head)
3) It is important that the tube and the dome fit
correctly into your ear
4) When the dome is placed correctly, you should
not be able to see the flex tube sticking out
when you face a mirror
Note
You should never attempt to bend or modify the
shape of the flex tube.
removing the Hearing instrument

Volume Control
When using the instrument you can increase the volume by turning the
volume control up, and reduce volume by turning it down.
For each volume step, you will hear a
"beep" signal indicating the change.
The loudness of the "beeps" will
increase as you turn the volume up
and decrease as you turn it down.
If you reach the upper or lower limit
of the volume control range, there
will be a larger duration of "beep"
signal with a lower pitch.
Your hearing care professional may have activated a function in the
hearing instrument enabling the instrument to learn how you adjust
the volume control in different listening environments. As it learns
your volume preferences, the instrument eventually changes the
volume for you automatically. This function can be turned off or
reset by your hearing care professional.
