Once you have attached the slim tube HE with dome to
the hearing instrument, you are ready to place the
hearing instrument on the client’s ear.
1. Place the hearing instrument over the top of the ear.
2. Hold the slim tube HE where it attaches to the dome
and gently push the dome into the client’s ear canal.
The dome should be placed far enough into the ear so
that the slim tube HE lies flush against the head.
When looking at your client face-to-face, you should
not see the slim tube HE sticking out.
3. Place the retention piece of the slim tube HE into the
concha bowl.
Note: If the retention piece is too long, you may cut the length
slightly. Be careful not to shorten the length too much, as it
could affect retention in the ear.
