and the air cable to the pump connector. Select the test ear by pressing either the Right or Left ear
icon. Cartoon mode will show an airplane on the screen during the tympanometry test. For web

sure that the ear tip fits tightly into the ear canal.

The system will first check the probe fit and wait for the pressure build up. The LED light on the probe
will pulse at a steady pace to indicate a correct fit. During the test, if the probe fit is not correct, the
LED light will blink at a fast pace and an error message prompting you to retry or cancel the test will
appear on the screen.
