Hearing aid with a closed ear-tip
The anchor can also be trimmed to fit your ear:
Pull the pointed end of the an-
chor through the upper hole on
the receiver located at the end
of the earwire.
Continue pulling until the an-
chor is stopped by the grip at
the end. The angled grip should
be pointing towards the hear-
ing aid.
Now guide the pointed end of
the anchor through the lower
hole to form a loop.
When the loop is the correct
size, cut any excess off, leaving
only the loop.
The anchor loop has the correct size when it supports
the position of the ear-tip in the ear canal, and the ear-
set sits securely in and on the ear.
Take great care to cut off all the
excess so that the end of the an-
chor loop is flush with the small
hole and there are no sharp
edges.
Use the tip of your finger to
check for sharp edges. If part of the anchor sticks out
through the hole, creating an uneven surface, this may
cause irritation of the ear.
