top part
of a head clamp bar to extend both bars.
4.
Ask the patient to do the following:
•
Move forward.
•
Stand up straight.
•
Place both ears in between the head clamps.
5.
On the positioning panel, press and hold
until you get the ear cones to the same height of ear
auditory canals.
Important: The head clamp will NOT extend if you pull out at the lower
part of the bar.
