How to put on a hearing aid
Published26-10-2016
Last Updated21-06-2019
Use three easy steps: Place the hearing aid behind the ear, insert the ear-tip into the ear canal - and run your finger along the wire.
THREE EASY STEPS
Place
the hearing aid behind the ear, so that the earwire rests comfortably on the ear, close to your head.
Insert
the ear-tip into the ear canal while holding the lower part of the earwire.
Run your finger along the wire to
confirm
that the hearing aid fits properly.
NOTE:
Contact your
hearing care professional
if the ear-set does not fit properly or causes discomfort, irritation, or redness
.
