Important information
Hearing instruments should not be fitted with domes/wax
protection system when used by clients with perforated
eardrums, inflamed ear canals or otherwise exposed middle
ear cavities. In these cases, we recommend the use of a
custom earpiece.
In the unlikely case that any part of the system remains in
the ear canal, it is strongly recommended to consult a
medical specialist for safe removal.
•The dome should be changed every three months or when it
becomes stiff or brittle. This is to prevent the dome from
detaching from the receiver sound outlet during insertion
into or removal from the ear.
•Changes or modifications made to this equipment not
expressly approved by Phonak are not allowed.
Thank you for choosing a Phonak Receiver-In-Canal (RIC)
product, designed to provide comfortable, flexible fittings for
your clients.
These assembly instructions provide you with a straight-forward
approach to fitting Phonak RIC hearing instruments for long-
term satisfaction.
Please note that all SDS 4.0 components are
only compatible with Marvel Audéo devices.

1. Position your head at the same horizontal level as the client’s
head so you are looking straight into the client’s ear. (a)
2. Hold the measurement tool with the appropriate blue or red
color code marking so your thumb is placed on the colored
area. (b)
3. Place the measurement tool on the top of the ear. Keep the
lines on the measurement tool horizontal. (b)
4. Choose the number (0, 1, 2, or 3) on the measurement tool
which is closest to the top of the opening of the ear canal.
In this example, 0 would be the most accurate choice. (c)
5. For binaural fittings, repeat process on the opposite ear.
Note:
It is important to measure both ears for a binaural fitting since right and left
ear sizes can vary and thus, require different receiver lengths.

Dome size
Perform an otoscopic examination of your client’s ear canal. Based on the examination,
choose a dome size diameter and length suitable for the ear canal. The dome should fit
snugly and comfortably into the opening of the client’s ear canal, shown in the figure,
and help to retain the receiver inside.
*There are no coupling instructions for cShell as it is pre-assembled. Receiver with cShell can only be exchanged by manufacturer.

Removing the retention
We recommend using the retention for a more
stable positioning of the receiver in the ear canal.
It can easily be pre-shaped (to suit the concha) by
sliding it over a sharp edge.
Attaching / removing the retention to / from the receiver
1. Hold receiver rmly with one hand.
2. Slide the retention over the
receiver spout until you feel it
click into place. The receiver name
should still be clearly visible.
1. Hold the receiver rmly in one
hand with the receiver name (e.g.
0M) facing upwards. With the
other hand hold the retention at
the base of the lament.
2. Slide the retention forwards over
the receiver spout.

Attaching the dome to the receiver
1. Hold the receiver in one hand and the
dome in the other hand.
2. Slide the dome over the receiver spout.
You will feel the dome “click” into place.
In very rare cases, the dome can remain in the
ear canal when removing the receiver from the
ear. In the unlikely case that any parts remain in
the ear canal, it is strongly recommended to see
a medical specialist for safe removal.

Attaching the SlimTip to the receiver
1. Slide the receiver into the sleeve of the handling
tool, ensure the receiver label (e.g. 0M) is visible and
facing upwards, and the receiver cable is extending
upwards. Note that the tool has three dierent
sized sleeves to accommodate S, M and P receiver
housings.
3. Gently insert the receiver spout into the SlimTip Link
until you feel it click into place securely.
2. Hold the SlimTip rmly with one hand, with the other
hand insert the receiver using the handling tool.
Note that the printed label on the SlimTip faces
the opposite direction to the receiver label.
4. Gently slide the tool away from the receiver.
