Your completely-in-the-
canal (CIC), in-the-canal (ITC),
or in-the-ear (ITE) hearing
instruments have been
custom-made with electronic
circuitry and controls to match
your particular hearing
requirements.
Your instruments may also
be programmed to provide
additional flexibility and
control. These parameters
have been set by your hearing
care professional and/or the
manufacturer and are not
adjustable by the wearer.
This manual contains instruc-
tions for the three instrument
styles shown here. Basic oper-
ating instructions are provided
on the pages shown. To help you remember, mark
the box next to your instrument style.

Left- and right-ear CICs are identified by their
shell color or a color marking.

IDENTIFICATION

It is very important to use
the correct size and type cell
for your instrument. CICs use
a size 10A cell. Battery sizes
can be identified by color
code on the packaging. Size
10A battery packages have a
yellow mark.
Because of their size, it’s a good idea to change and
replace batteries at a table or desk to reduce the risk
of dropping the instrument or battery.
To insert or replace
the battery, open the
compartment by placing
your fingernail under the
edge of the swing-out door
and gently pulling outward.
DO NOT open the battery door too far or damage is
likely to occur.

CIC BATTERIES
5
On some instruments, an
indicator tone will sound
when the battery’s voltage is
low. It is suggested that you
replace the battery when you
hear the tone.
Existing batteries are
removed by pushing the
cell out the top of the fully
opened door. DO NOT pull it out the side of
the door.
Place the new battery in the
compartment with the plus
(+) sign facing up.
Close the battery
compartment by swinging
the door until it snaps shut.
NEVER FORCE THE DOOR
SHUT. This could result
in serious damage. If the
door will not close securely, check that the battery is
placed properly in the compartment.
CIC BATTERIES
6
Before placing
your instruments into
your ears, make certain
the batteries are inserted
properly and the battery
doors are closed securely.
NEVER use the battery compartment door to insert
or remove the instrument! Damage may occur, as the
door is not designed to withstand the pressure.
To insert the CIC, hold it
with the insertion/removal
line between your thumb
and forefinger, and with the
microphone opening at the
top of the instrument.
CIC INSERTION STEP 1
CIC INSERTION AND REMOVAL
7
Simply guide the instrument
down into your ear canal
until you feel resistance.
Let go of the insertion/
removal line.
Push the instrument in until it
is resting comfortably inside
your canal. To ease insertion,
you may wish to pull down
on your ear lobe with your
other hand as you push.
To remove your CIC, slowly
and gently pull the insertion/
removal line outward.

Your CIC is “on” any time
a functioning battery is
properly placed in the
compartment and the
battery door is closed.
To turn the instrument “off,”
simply open the battery
compartment door so the
battery is no longer in contact with the internal
components. This is recommended to preserve
battery life any time your instrument is not in use.
Your CIC has been set to a
specific volume
level by your Hearing
Professional. There is no
volume control on the
instrument. If you experience
performance that is
consistently too loud or too
soft, please contact your
hearing care professional for advice and adjustment.
