Warning to hearing healthcare professional: Domes should never
be tted on patients with perforated eardrums, exposed middle ear cavities, or surgically altered ear canals. In the case of such a condition, we recommend to use a customized ear mold. In the unlikely case that any parts remain in the ear canal aer the removal of the hearing instrument, contact a physician immediately.

To measure for an accurate wire length:
1. Place your head at the same horizontal level as the patient’s head so you are looking straight into the patient’s ear that you wish to t with the hearing instrument.
2. Hold the measurement tool with the appropriate blue or red color code marking (for the le or right ear) with your thumb placed on the ear diagram.
3. Place the measurement tool on the top of the ear and in contact with the skin in the narrow gap between the head and the pinna. Keep the horizontal line on the measurement tool horizontal and level.
Measuring for an accurate xReceiverunit
Choosing the correct xReceiver wire length will ensure a more accurate, comfortable t. The measurement tool included in the kit allows for a quick and simple measurement and has the following features:
Color Code Markings – blue (le ear) and red (right ear) color code markings to indicate which of the patient’s ears to measure.
Horizontal Line Markings – measurements must be made horizontally with the measurement tool touching the skin in the gap between the head and the top of the pinna.
Four Horizontal Sightlines – (0-1-2-3) – to indicate which wire length you should use for an accurate tting.

Modifying xReceiver wire to improve t
In some cases, you might nd that the wire of the xReceiver unit does not lie close to the side of the head or follow the shape of the ear.
First, ensure the selected dome and xReceiver unit sizes are appropriate (see following pages).
If a dierent xReceiver tube does not t better, you may need to modify the curvature (bend) slightly using the steps outlined below.
1. Remove the xReceiver unit from the hearing instrument.
2. Heat the tube carefully with a hairdryer at a low setting for a few seconds.
3. Do not use excessive heat to avoid damage to the electrical components.
4. Bend the tubing into the desired shape and hold until it has cooled o. Once completely cooled, the tube will maintain its new shape.
4. Choose the sightline (0-1-2-3) on the measurement tool that is most parallel with the top of the opening of the ear canal. In this example, the sightline marked 1 would be the most accurate choice.
5. Make a note of the sightline chosen and then
repeat steps 1-4 on the opposite ear for a binaural tting.
Note: It is important to measure the opposite ear for a binaural
tting since right and le ear sizes can vary and thus, require dierent wire lengths.
Poor t (tube does not lie close to the head)

Choosing the correct coupling for standard xReceivers
Determine the correct dome size based on your otoscopic examination of the ear canal. Selectthedometypebasedon the audiometric requirements and tting ranges shown on this page. Allowthedome to t comfortably in the ear canal.
