Left/right ear marking

Hearing instruments are fitted to the uniqueness of each ear, which means if you
have two instruments then your left hearing instrument is programmed differently
from your right. That is why it is important to distinguish between the left hearing
instrument and the right.
In order to easily identify whether it is a left ear or a right ear instrument, color
markings may be applied inside the battery door.
A blue dot marks the LEFT instrument.
A red dot marks the RIGHT instrument.
