5. Mark the tubing, allowing for an additional few millimetres, so it
can attach to the earhook.
6. Cut the tubing only when you are certain the length will allow
a secure and comfortable fit. It is important not to cut it too
short.
7. Feed it on to your earhook.
Fitting the Mic Lock
To wear the Processing Unit with the Mic Lock in place, fold your
ear down and gently pass your ear lobe through the loop made by
the Processing Unit
and Mic Lock until it is in position on your ear.
Alternatively, bring the tubing to the front of your ear and feed it on
to your earhook.
Your processor should fit securely with the Mic Lock in place.
To remove the Processing Unit with the Mic Lock attached, fold
down your ear lobe and reverse the process. Alternatively, ease the
tubing off the earhook.
A secure fit using the Snugfit
™
Retention
Aid
The Snugfit Retention Aid can be used to hold the Processing Unit
in place more securely than the standard earhook and is easier
to configure than the Mic Lock. The Snugfit is available in three
sizes for both adults and children: small, large and extra large. It is
easily adjustable, comfortable and robust enough to withstand the
elements of an active lifestyle. It can also be used with the Babyworn
wearing option to provide a secure fit for children.
