Practical Solutions to Everyday Problems
Congratulations on choosing your new Next™ 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.
Next is an innovative hearing instrument that delivers
exceptional sound quality, performance, and results.
Your Next hearing instrument may include an automatic
program that reads your listening environment and
automatically determines a sound destination that is
most effective for optimal listening as your listening
needs change throughout the day. Up to 3 optional
manual programs give you added flexibility to meet your
particular listening needs. Next’s sophisticated adaptive
features offer you the latest digital technology so your
hearing instruments will adapt, leading to a more
personalized experience.

Getting the Most Out of Your Next™
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 Next™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.
