accessories shut down. Full functionality returns when you insert a new battery.

7.4 Insert/Remove hearing aids
For comfort, always turn off your hearing aids before you insert or remove them.
7.4.1 Insert earmould
1. Hold the earmould between your thumb and index finger and position its
sound outlet in your ear canal.
2. Slide the earmould all the way into your ear with a gentle, twisting movement.
3. Move the earmould up and down and gently press to place it correctly in the
ear. Opening and closing your mouth can ease insertion.
4. Make sure the hearing aid sits firmly behind the ear.
By experimenting, you may discover an easier method. With proper insertion, hearing
aids should fit snugly but comfortably.
i
NOTE: It may be helpful to pull your ear up and outward with your opposite hand
during insertion.
i
CAUTION: Never attempt to modify the shape of the hearing aids, earmoulds, or tubing yourself.
7.4.2 Remove earmould
1. Lift the hearing aid from behind the ear. For a moment, let it hang beside your ear.
2. Using your thumb and index finger, gently pull the earmould (not the hearing aid or the tubing) loose
from the ear.
3. Remove the earmould completely by gently twisting it.
