Warnings
• CHOKING HAZARD –The Naída CI contains small
parts that pose a hazard of inhalation or choking
• It is recommended to use the T-Mic 2 only when the
T-Mic 2 Cover is properly seated.
Naída CI T-Mic 2 Microphone and Earhook
The Naída CI T-Mic 2 and earhook are intended for
use with the Naída CI sound processor. The T-Mic 2 is
a custom in-the-ear microphone for hearing in noisy
environments and gaining effortless access to cell
phones, consumer audio electronics, and assistive
listening devices while the earhook serves to hold the
processor on the ear when the built-in microphone is
utilized.
Connecting the T-Mic 2 or Earhook
1
Beginning with the T-Mic 2 or earhook disconnected, align
the T-Mic 2 or earhook flush with the
processor. Hold the T-Mic 2 or earhook firmly
at the top and push towards the processor
until it meets flush with the processor.

3
2
Using the provided T-Mic 2 or earhook tool, place one of
the pins in the small hole on the side of the tool. This will
help to steady the pin as you line it up with the pin hole on
the T-Mic 2 or earhook.
3
Line up the pin with the hole in the T-Mic 2 or earhook
and gently push it through the hole. The pin will move
from one side of the processor, through the T-Mic 2 or
earhook to the other side of the processor, holding the
T-Mic 2 or earhook in place. The pin should not come out
the other side.

4
4
If a small portion of the pin extends beyond the
processor, use the side of the tool to push the pin
inwards so it lies flush with the processor.
5
Pull the tool away from the processor, leaving
the pin inside the Naída CI.

5
Removing the T-Mic 2 or Earhook
1
Remove the power source. Align the pointed end of
the 2 tool with the hole on the processor that
contains the pin holding the T-Mic 2
or earhook on the Naída CI.
2
Gently press the tool in the hole, pushing
the pin out the other side.

6
3
The pin does not need to be removed from the
processor. As long as the tool was pushed in
flush on one side of the processor, the pin
should be displaced enough to adequately
remove the T-Mic 2 or earhook.
4
Remove the tool from the Naída CI. Gently grasp
the T-Mic 2 or earhook at the top near where it
connects with the processor and pull forward
until it is separated from the processor.

7
Attaching the T-Mic 2 Cover*
1
Hold the T-Mic 2 Cover. In the other hand, hold the T-Mic
2 at the end that houses the microphone. Align the bot-
tom of the T-Mic 2 over the T-Mic 2 Cover.
2
Gently turn the T-Mic 2 into the T-Mic 2 Cover.
Screw until they meet together flush.

is located, in one hand. Firmly hold the T-Mic 2
microphone portion in the other hand.
