Technical Data

Intended Use:Personal Sound Amplifiers (PSAPs) are intended to

amplify environmental sound for non-hearing impaired consumers. They

are intended to accentuate sounds in specific listening environments, rather

than for everyday use in multiple listening situations. They are not intended

to compensate for hearing impairment or to address listening situations

that are typically associated with and indicative of hearing loss. Examples of

situations in which PSAPs typically are used include hunting (listening for

prey), bird watching, listening to lectures with a distant speaker, and listening

to soft sounds that would be difficult for normal hearing individuals to hear.

Inserting the Battery

1. Remove the brown colored tab from the flat, (+)

positive side of the size 312 battery. Wait one minute

for battery to reach full power before using (or

testing) battery.

2. Open battery holder gently, using your fingernail or

thumbnail. Pull out on the small lip of the battery

holder located on the lower part of the HHE-6205.

3. Locate the + symbol on the inside top rim of the

battery holder. This indicates that the flat, positive

side of the battery should face up in the same

direction as the + symbol.

4. Place the battery in the battery holder –

NOT directly inside the HHE-6205.

Fit the battery in the holder with the

flat, positive (+) side facing up.

5. Close the battery holder.

NEVER force the battery holder closed.If the holder does not close easily

then the battery is probably upside down.

LOW BATTERY INDICATOR: When the battery is no longer strong enough to

power your HHE-6205, you will hear 2 beeps then a pause then 2 beeps again.

This will repeat until you replace the battery.

There are four sizes of slim-tubing available for the right

and left ear. Attached to your HHE-6205 is the size we

feel works best for most people. We have also included an

additional size slim-tubing for you to try if needed.

Additional sizes are available by calling 1-800-221-2099.

Right slim-tubing: 0R, 1R, 2R, 3R

Left slim-tubing: 0L, 1L, 2L, 3L

Which is left and right: Your HHE-6205 can be

used in either ear by selecting a right slim-tubing

or a left slim-tubing. Each slim-tubing is preformed

to “point” into either the right or left ear.

Right slim-tubing has red lettering

Left slim-tubing has blue lettering.

It’s important for the slim-tubing to fit correctly: slim-tubing should

fit snugly against your ear once the HHE-6205 and eartip are in place. If not,

the slim-tubing may be too short or too long. Try a different slim-tubing length.

If you need a different size slim-tube simply call 1-800-221-2099.

Eartip choices

We offer a variety of eartip options. We have attached the eartip style that we feel

works best for most. Also included are several other eartip options.

If you have trouble with the fit of the eartip or if you experience feedback (squeal),

give the other eartips a try.

How to Attach Dome Eartips:

1. Line up the narrow tubing nozzle with the opening on the

inside of the eartip.

2. Push together firmly until the eartip is securely attached.

Wiggle the eartip to be certain it stays in place.

How to Remove Dome Eartips:

1. Hold the eartip tightly and grasp the tubing directly behind the eartip. Pull firmly.

(Replace eartips as needed.)

Vent

How to Remove the ZipTip:

1. Hold the ZipTip tightly and grasp the tubing directly behind the ZipTip.

2. Pull firmly. (Replace ZipTips as needed, if damaged or worn.)

NOTE: There is a small sleeve inside the ZipTip that may remain on the end of the tubing when removing.

If this happens, simply re-attach the ZipTip, grasp that area of the ZipTip tightly and pull away from the tubing.

How to Attach the ZipTip:

1. Line up the narrow tubing nozzle with the opening on the inside of the

ZipTip (the hole that goes through the longest portion of the ZipTip).

2. Push together firmly until the ZipTip is securely attached. Wiggle the ZipTip to be certain it stays in place.

Tulip dome eartip: Designed to help reduce feedback. Provides a great

fit for a wide variety of ear canal shapes and sizes. Available in one size.

Open dome eartips: Helpful for those using their amplifier on a very low

volume setting. Available in sizes small, medium and large.

Closed dome eartip: Designed to reduce feedback (squeal) for those

using their amplifier on a medium volume setting.

Available in sizes small, medium and large.

Double dome eartips: Designed for those that struggle with feedback

(squeal) due to using the amplifier on a higher volume level.

Available in sizes small, medium and large.

ZipTip eartips: The ZipTip eartips can be helpful if you experience a

stuffed up feeling or it sounds like you are talking in a barrel. Available in

sizes small and medium and both are available with a small or large vent.

How to insert the HHE-6205:

1. Grasp the slim-tubing behind the eartip and

gently push the eartip into your ear canal.

2. Place your HHE-6205 over the

top of your ear.

3. The slim-tubing will probably bulge slightly near

the ear canal. Point at the bend in the tubing and

push gently. The eartip should slip a little further

into the ear canal for proper placement. The

tubing should fit snugly against your ear.

Note: If pushing on the slim-tubing causes discomfort, STOP.

Call for assistance. 1-800-221-2099

4. Place the sure-lock into the bowl of

your ear. The sure-lock is the thin

filament attached to the tubing. Use

your finger to secure the sure-lock into

the most comfortable position.

Inserting & removing your HHE-6205

To Remove HHE-6205:

1. Grasp hold of the slim-tubing against your ear and gently pull.

The eartip will slip out of your ear.

2. Remove the HHE-6205 from behind your ear.

NOTE: Tubing should not bulge away from the ear or

pull the HHE-6205 down or the eartip out of the ear.

If this occurs, try a different length tubing. See picture

to the right.

ATTENTION: Confirm the eartip is attached to the slim-tubing each time you

remove it from your ear. If the eartip remains in your ear, seek medical assistance.

We’ve done what we can to protect your HHE-6205 from moisture and

earwax but a little regular cleaning by you will go a long way towards

trouble-free use. Without regular cleaning, wax and moisture can build up

and prevent your HHE-6205 from working properly. We suggest cleaning

your HHE-6205 in the morning before you use it and storing it overnight

in a DryAid Dehumidifier (call to order). It does not take much dirt or wax

to clog the super-thin tubing and the tiny openings. Many customers find

cleaning the tubing weekly is sufficient.

Cleaning your HHE-6205:

1. Wipe off the outside of the HHE-6205 hearing amplifier and eartip

with a soft cloth or cleaning wipes (call to order).

2. Use the included cleaning brush and tube cleaning tool to gently

remove wax and dirt from the amplifiers sound openings.

How to clean your HHE-6205 slim-tubing:

1. REMOVE THE SLIMTUBING from the HHE-6205 (see pg. 5).

There is no need to remove the eartip from the tubing.

2. Insert the cleaning tool into the triangular base at the end of the

slim-tubing.

3. Thread the cleaning tool all the way through the slim-tubing and out

of the end of the eartip.

4. Wipe off any debris on the end of the cleaning tool before pulling it

back through the eartip and slim-tubing.

If your HHE-6205 is: WHISTLING (FEEDBACK)

1. Turn the volume down, it may be set

too high (pg. 8).

2. Use program setting #3 (pg. 8).

3. Check that your eartip is inserted

correctly (pg. 7).

4. Try a different size eartip

(pg. 6).

5. Verify the tubing is attached correctly.

Slim-tubing should be in good

condition. If the tubing has hardened

or is damaged, it should be replaced

(pg. 5).

6. Your HHE-6205 may briefly whistle

when a hand, hat or other object is

near it or when you are inserting and

removing the amplifier.

1. Check that the battery is inserted

correctly (pg. 4).

2. Try a fresh battery.

3. Clean your HHE-6205, microphone

ports, and eartip (pg. 9).

4. If your HHE-6205 goes dead

periodically, but comes on after

several hours of rest, the problem

may be a build-up of humidity. Try

storing it in a DryAid dehumidifier

when not in use (pg. 14).
