the negative side of battery may be up.

The BOOST power is controlled by opening and closing

Step 2: Lower volume

Press and quickly release the bottom of the control switch
several times or until whistling stops. Volume may be set
at full volume upon arrival.

Hint:

Partially close battery door until your BOOST is

securely in your ear. Then completely close door to turn on.

Step 3: Place tip in entrance of ear canal

Important: Verify tip is pushed all the way on tubing

before inserting tip in ear. The end of tubing should
be visible through the opening of tip.

tube may detach from tip upon removal.

Hold tubing and back of tip (index nger inside tip and

thumb on outside). Gently place tip in entrance of ear
canal. The wider back of tip will form a seal outside of

entrance to prevent amplied sounds from leaving ear.

Hint:

The tapered design of tip accommodates majority of ear

canal sizes. Smaller diameter canals will have less of tip inside canal

entrance. Tips are right and left specic; they curve towards back of head.
