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

Measuring for an accurate xReceiverunit.

Choosing the correct xReceiver wire length will ensure a more accurate, com-

fortable ﬁt� The measurement tool included in the kit allows for a quick and

simple measurement and has the following features:

Color Code Markings – blue (left 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 ﬁtting�

Fitting guide.

Receiver-in-Canal (RIC).

4Choose 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�

5Make a note of the sightline chosen and then repeat steps 1-4 on the

opposite ear for a binaural ﬁtting�

To measure for an accurate wire length.

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 ﬁt with

the hearing instrument�

Hold the measurement tool with the appropriate blue or red color

code marking (for the left or right ear) with your thumb placed on

the ear diagram�

3Place 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�

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.

Modifying xReceiver wire to improve t.

In some cases, you might ﬁnd 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)�

Remove the xReceiver unit from the hearing instrument�

Heat the tube carefully with a hairdryer at a low setting

for a few seconds�

Do not use excessive heat to avoid damage to the electrical components�

Bend the tubing into the desired shape and hold until it has cooled

off� Once completely cooled, the tube will maintain its new shape�
