Practical Solutions to Everyday Problems
Congratulations on choosing your new Element™BTE
(Behind-the-Ear) hearing instruments. For over 40 years,
Unitron Hearing has been committed to making life
better for people with hearing loss. This means a
commitment to developing high-quality hearing
solutions that incorporate special features to solve the
everyday problems and concerns you have with hearing
loss and hearing instruments.
Element includes real problem solving innovations, high-
value advanced features, and delivers exceptional sound
quality in everyday listening environments. Your Element
hearing instrument may include an automatic program
that reads your listening environment and automatically
determines a sound destination that is most effective for
optimal listening as your listening needs change
throughout the day. Three additional manual programs
give you added flexibility to meet your particular
listening needs. Element’s sophisticated adaptive
features offer you the latest in digital technology so your
hearing instruments adapt without the need for manual
adjustments or fiddling by you.

Getting the Most Out of Your Element™
Hearing Instruments
Adjusting to your new hearing instruments will take
some time. In the beginning it is important that you do
not use the hearing instruments for longer than is
comfortable. Depending on your previous experience
with hearing instruments, a few hours a day may be
enough and then you can increase wearing time
gradually. Once you have become accustomed to your
hearing devices, you should wear them all day every day
since infrequent use will not permit you to adapt to your
hearing devices and enjoy their full benefits. The quicker
you get used to the everyday sounds around you, the
less you will notice that you are wearing hearing
instruments.

Putting Your Element™Hearing
Instruments on Your Ears
BTEs with Slim Tubes
1. Hold the slim tube where it attaches to the dome and
gently push the dome into your ear canal. The slim
tube should lie flush against your head and not stick
out.
2. Place the hearing instrument over the top of your ear.
3. Place the retention piece in your ear so it rests at the
bottom of the opening of your ear canal.
4. Repeat steps 1-3 for your other ear if you wear two
hearing devices.
BTEs with Earhooks
1. Carefully insert the earmold in your ear. The earmold
should fit into your ear snugly and comfortably.
2. Place the hearing instrument over the top of your ear.
3. Repeat steps 1-2 for your other ear if you wear two
hearing devices.

Turning Your Element™Hearing Instruments
On and Off
Your hearing instruments have a three-position battery
door that acts as an off/on switch and that allows access
to the battery compartment.
To turn the hearing instrument on, close the battery door
fully. Note: If the start up delay is activated, your
hearing instruments will not turn on for 10-15 seconds
after closing the battery door.
To turn the hearing instrument off, partially open the
battery door. This position allows excess moisture to
vent away from the battery compartment.
To replace the hearing instrument battery, fully open the
battery door for access to the battery compartment.
on off open
Note: When turning your hearing
instrument on and off, grasp the
top and bottom of the
instrument with your index finger
and thumb. Use your thumb to
open and close the battery door.
