The speaker brings the sound into your ear. The speaker should always be used with an earpiece attached. Use only parts designed for your hearing aid.

Place the hearing aid behind your ear.
Step 2
Hold the bend of the speaker wire between your thumb and index finger. The earpiece should point towards the ear canal opening.
Step 3
Gently push the earpiece into your ear canal until the
speaker wire sits close against the side of your head.

Caring for your hearing aid
When handling your hearing aid, hold it over a soft surface to avoid damage if you drop it.
