Putting your Hearing Instruments on
your Ears
Your behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing instruments may be
color-coded red for your right ear and blue for your left
ear. This color indicator is located on the battery door
with a small colored dot. The transmitter hearing
instrument is for your poor ear and the receiver
hearing instrument with the receiver boot is for your
better ear.
BTEs with Earmolds
1. Hold the earmold between your thumb and index
finger. The opening should be pointing in towards
your ear canal with the BTE resting upwards near
the top of your ear. Carefully insert the earmold in
your ear. You may need to turn it slightly
backwards. The earmold should fit into your ear
snugly and comfortably.
2. Place the hearing instrument over the top of your
ear.
