10 The receiver wire
The receiver wire contains the wiring to the receiver, which delivers the sound to the ear canal. It is im-
portant that the receiver wire and the receiver dome/earmould fits correctly in your ear. If the receiver
wire or the receiver dome/earmould irritates your ear in any way and prevents you from wearing your
hearing aid, please contact your hearing care professional.
You should never attempt to modify the shape of the receiver wire yourself. The receiver wire and the
receiver dome/earmould should be cleaned regularly.
Please see cleaning instructions in chapter 13.2 – 13.4.
11 How to apply domes
It is recommended that your hearing care professional shows you how to change the domes, because
incorrect dome replacement could result in the dome being left in the ear when you remove the hear-
ing aid.
11.1 Standard domes
Follow these steps to mount domes:
1. Push the new dome over the ribs flange
on the receiver wire.
2. Make sure that the new dome is properly
and securely mounted.
11.2 Tulip domes
The Tulip domes are mounted in a similar manner to the ordinary domes, but a few extra steps are
required. The Tulip domes consist of two “petals”.
Follow these steps to mount domes:
1. Push the largest petal away from the receiver wire using a finger. This bends the petal forward.
2. Push the new tulip dome over the flange.
3. Then push the largest petal backwards, and it will be placed on top of the smaller petal.
i
NOTE: It is important to note that the largest petal is the outermost petal.
4. Make sure that the new dome is properly and securely mounted.
