Proper Placement in the ear
Receiver Unit
Placing the Receiver and the Transmitter units correctly
Your hearing system consists of two hearing instruments: the Receiver
Unit and the Transmitter Unit. You can recognise the Receiver Unit by
the Volume Control and the special sings on the battery door.
The Transmitter Unit is designated for the picking-up, amplifying and
transmitting the sounds from the side, where you can hear worse or can
not hear at all, to the ear, which can hear or can hear better. Accordingly,
Transmitter Unit
the Transmitter Unit should be placed at the "worse" ear.
The Receiver Unit is designated for the receiving of the sounds, trans-
mitted from the "worse" ear and providing them into the better" ear.
Your hearing healthcare professional can also set the Receiver Unit so,
that it will amplify the sounds, coming from the better side. Accordingly,
the Receiver Unit should be placed at the ear, which can hear better.

If you are unsure how to place the Receiver and the Transmitter Units,
you should contact your hearing healthcare professional.
Inserting a standard Earmold with a BTE (Behind The Ear Instrument):
• With the Program switch in the "0" (Off) position, put the earmold
between your thumb and index finger and position its "point" in
your ear canal. Now, slide the earmold all the way into your ear with
a gentle, twisting movement.
• Turn the top part of the earmold gently backward and forward so
that it fits behind the fold of skin above your ear canal.
• Place the hearing instrument behind your ear. Move the earmold up
and down and press gently to ensure it is positioned correctly in the
ear. You will feel when the earmold is positioned correctly.
• Switch on your hearing system by moving the Program switch in the
position "1" (On).
