To tighten the binaurals, hold binaurals at
the base, at the bottom of the "Y", as shown at
right. Squeeze together gently until the eartips
cross and the desired tension is achieved.
To loosen the binaurals, grasp binaurals with
both hands above the "Y", as shown at right.
Pull binaurals apart gently until the desired
tension is achieved.
Operation
1. If not already assembled, screw eartips
into binaurals.
2. Clean the stethoscope (see the following
instructions).
3. Ensure binaurals are adjusted to a
comfortable tension. If not, follow previous
instructions to adjust binaural tension.
4. Gently insert binaural eartips into ears, ensuring the eartips are
pointing forward.
5. Tap the diaphragm softly; this should produce sounds clearly.
6. During use, in order to better hear different frequencies, vary the
amount of pressure on the diaphragm.
7. To ensure your stethoscope remains comfortable, check frequently
to ensure the eartips are tightly secured to the binaurals.
