ReSound Vea™ supplement— BTEs
inSeRting the heaRing inStRuMent
—with StandaRd eaRMold and tubing
To insert the hearing instrument into your ear:
1. Take the earmold between your thumb and fore-
finger and position the tip in your ear canal. Now,
slide the earmold all the way into your ear with a
gentle, twisting movement.
2. Turn the top part of the earmold gently back and
forth until it fits behind the fold of skin above your
ear canal. Insertion can be easier if you gently pull
your ear back with your other hand.
2. Grasp the Thin Tube where it bends and push the
dome into your ear canal (toward your nose). The
dome should be placed far enough into the ear
so that the Thin Tube lies flush against your head.
Whenthedome
is placed correctly, you should not
see the Thin Tube sticking out when looking di-
rectly into a mirror .
If using a sports lock,
ensure that it is properly
placed into the bowl of
the ear.
By experimenting, you
may find a method that
is easier for you. When
properly inserted, the in-
strument should fit com-
fortably in and behind
your ear. If the hearing
instrument irritates your ear in any way and prevents
you from wearing the instrument, please contact your
hearing healthcare professional.
NOTE: Never attempt to modify the shape of the
hearing instrument, earmold or tubing yourself.
