Inserting and removing
your ACURIS BTE
Make sure that your hearing
instrument is turned off. Hold the
earmold between your thumb and
index finger and insert it carefully
into your ear canal. You may find
it helpful to pull your ear slightly
upward or to the back. Gently
work the earmold into its proper
position by adjusting it until it is
firmly seated in your ear. Once
inserted, you should feel whether
the earmold is placed correctly.
Next, place your hearing instru-
ment behind your ear and turn it
on.
Tip:
Practice inserting and removing
your hearing instrument correctly.
An easy way to practice is to sit
down at a table. Place a mirror in
front of you and prop your elbows
on the table so you can guide
your hands easily and safely. This
will help you stay relaxed and
comfortable while you practice.
