Dome size

Perform an otoscopic examination of your member’s ear canal. Based on the 

examination, choose a dome size diameter and length suitable for the ear 

canal. The dome should fit snugly and comfortably into the opening of the 

member’s ear canal, shown in the figure, and help to retain the receiver inside.

*There are no coupling instructions for cShell as it is pre-assembled. Receiver with cShell can only be exchanged by the manufacturer.
