Practical Solutions to Everyday Problems
Congratulations on choosing your new Yuu™ BTE
(Behind-the-Ear) hearing instruments. For over 40 years,
Unitron Hearing has been committed to making life
better for people with hearing loss. This means a
commitment to developing high-quality hearing
solutions that incorporate special features to solve the
everyday problems and concerns you have with hearing
loss and hearing instruments.
Yuu is a premium hearing instrument that delivers
superior sound quality, performance, and extraordinary
results. Yuu’s automatic program reads your listening
environment and automatically determines hearing
instrument settings that are most effective for optimal
listening as your listening needs change throughout the
day. Three additional manual programs give you added
flexibility to meet your particular listening needs. Yuu
offers you the ability to adjust your personal comfort
and clarity settings, giving you greater control of your
listening experience. Yuu will also learn these
adjustments, leading to a more personalized hearing
instrument.

Getting the Most Out of Your Yuu™
Hearing Instruments
Adjusting to your new hearing instruments will take
some time. In the beginning it is important that you do
not use the hearing instruments for longer than is
comfortable. Depending on your previous experience
with hearing instruments, a few hours a day may be
enough and then you can increase wearing time
gradually. Once you have become accustomed to your
hearing instruments, you should wear them all day every
day since infrequent use will not permit you to adapt to
your hearing instruments and enjoy their full benefits.
The quicker you get used to the everyday sounds around
you, the less you will notice that you are wearing hearing
instruments.

Putting Your Yuu™Hearing Instruments on
Your Ears
Your BTE hearing instrument may be color-coded red for
your right ear and blue for your left ear. This color
indicator is located inside the battery door with a small
colored dot.
BTEs with Slim Tubes
1. Hold the slim tube where it attaches to the dome and
gently push the dome into your ear canal. The slim
tube should lie flush against your head and not stick
out.
2. Place the hearing instrument over the top of your ear.
3. Place the retention piece in your ear so it rests at the
bottom of the opening of your ear canal.
4. Repeat steps 1-3 for your other ear if you wear two
hearing instruments.
