Insertion and Removal

Custom earmold

To insert the Custom earmold and hearing instrument:

1.  Hold the Custom Earmold with your thumb and 

forefinger on the outer side near the tubing.

2.  Tilt your hand slightly forward and gently insert the 

canal tip of the Custom Earmold into your ear canal.

3.  Rotate the Custom Earmold backward.

4.  Softly press the Custom Earmold into place with 

your fingertip.

5.  Carefully place the BTE behind your ear wrapping 

the earhook over the top of your ear.

To remove the hearing instrument and  
Custom earmold:

Take the instrument from behind your ear and gently 
pull the Custom Earmold outward. Pulling lightly down 
on the ear lobe may help loosen the Custom Earmold 
as it is removed.

   My hearing instrument uses:

 

   A Custom Earmold. Please see below.

 

   An Instant Fit Earbud or Custom Eartip.
