Lift the earmold up to your ear.
Push the canal part
of the earmold into the ear canal opening twisting
slightly to ease the helix portion into position. The
helix part should be pointing straight up and should
slip into position.
• Ifyourearisbecomingsorefromtryingtoinsert
the earmold, spread a small amount of Vaseline
around the outer edges of the earmold to help it
slip into position easily. Be careful not to get any
Vaseline into the sound outlet.
If your ear remains
sore please
consult your Hearing Care Professional.
Look in a mirror. If the helix part of the earmold is
visible, it is not inserted correctly.
Run your index finger down the skin just in front of
your ear. If you can touch the helix part of the earmold,
it is not inserted correctly. Use your index finger to
push the helix part of your earmold back behind the
flap of skin. It may help to gently pull this flap of skin
forward with the other hand at the same time.
