behind your ear.
The thin tube should
only be used with
an attached ear-
piece. Use only parts
designed for your

the tube between
your thumb and
index finger. The
earpiece should
point towards the
ear canal opening.
Gently push the
earpiece into your
ear canal until the

your head. If the thin
tube has an ear grip,
place it in the ear so it
follows the contour of
the ear.

wax. If not cleaned, it may become blocked with wax, which stops
sound from coming into your ear.

tool all the way
through the thin
