Choosing the Correct Ear Tip
Replacing the Ear Tips
Find your fit with our patented vented ear tips. The ear
tips should fit well enough that the hearing aids feel
secure but not too tight. You may need to try all of them
to find one you’re comfortable with.
Vented tips are
the most natural
sounding since they
let in ambient sound
while also amplifying
where needed.
It allows for a full
range sound but may
not be the best for
someone with more
pronounced hearing
loss.
The micro-vented
dome tips are
designed for
a smooth and
transparent sound
that accommodates
a tighter fitting
ear canal while
still allowing an
adequate amount of
ambient sound in.
Gently pull on the tip until
it comes off. You may
need to twist it using a
back and forth motion.
Align the new tip with the
dome facing outward.
Press tip onto hearing
aid until it is fully on the
receiver and the wax stop
is flush with the entrance
to the dome tip.
Note:
Improper replacement of ear tips could result in the ear
tip coming off of the fio™ and being lodged in the ear canal.
Refer to page 17 for proper ear tip replacement.
Closed tips are going
to give you a more
direct sound energy
from the hearing aids
to be clearer. They will
block out more of the
ambient sound while
allowing more of the
direct sound energy
from the hearing aids to
be louder. These are
more suitable for people
with more pronounced
hearing issues.
