7.4.2 Remove earmould
1. Lift the hearing aid from behind the ear. For a moment, let it hang beside your ear.
2. Using your thumb and index finger, gently pull the earmould (not the instrument or the tubing)
loose from the ear.
3. Remove the earmould completely by gently twisting it.
7.4.3 Insert thin tube with dome
1. Hang the hearing aid over the top of the ear.
2. Hold the thin tube where it bends and gently place/push
the dome into the ear canal. Push the dome far enough
into the ear canal so that the thin tube lies flush with the
head (check with a mirror).
i
NOTE: To avoid whistling, it is important that the tube
and the dome fit correctly into your ear. For other possible reasons, check with the Troubleshoot-
ing guide.

CAUTION: Never attempt to modify the shape of the hearing aid, earmoulds, or tubing yourself.
