Inserting the hearing aids
Your hearing aids are placed in the charger in such a way that it should be
easy to remove them from the charger and insert them in the ear in one
movement. When the hearing aid sits in the ear, the vent opening should be
located in the notch just above your earlobe.
It may be helpful to pull your ear up and outward with your opposite hand
during insertion.
1. Hold the hearing aid between your thumb and index finger.
2. Insert the hearing aid into your ear canal:
Place the sound outlet portion into your ear canal. Turn the top part of the
hearing aid gently backwards and forwards so that it tucks behind the fold
of skin above your ear canal.
3. Check that the vent opening is in the notch just above your earlobe.
By experimenting, you may discover an easier method. With proper
insertion, hearing aids should fit snugly but comfortably.
CAUTION: Never attempt to modify the shape of the hearing aid
yourself.
