The Tulip-Dome should be directed with the sound outlet
hole facing either down towards your shoulders or up
towards your hair. (3) The sound outlet 
hole can turn both ways; the direction 
of the sound outlet hole affects the 
length of the sound tube according 
to the entrance of your ear canal. 
Please ask your hearing care 
professional which way the sound 
outlet hole should turn in your ear. 

The Tulip-Dome consists of two “leaves” and it is important
that the largest “leaf” is the outermost “leaf” (4). This can
easily be done by pushing the “leaves” away from the Thin
Tube with your forefinger and middle finger (5). This will
make the large “leaf” bend forward. Then you push it back
and it will be placed on top of the smaller “leaf” (6). Now the
Tulip-Dome is ready for insertion (7).
