Completing a Test
Obtaining a Tympanogram
Selecting a Probe Tip
1. After examining the subject’s ear canal opening, select a tip which is
large enough to seal the entrance of the ear canal. See Figure 2.
To change tips, either pull the tip off by hand or slide the tip ejector
towards the tip.
NOTE: Tips are not intended to be deeply inserted into the ear
canal. Using an improper tip size causes leaks, and will make it
difficult to complete a test.

2. Push the tip onto the probe, making sure that the tip is fully seated.
