Philips HC8900 Hearing Aid User Manual


 
Make sure that the pull tab of the hearing capsule is positioned on
top of the pull tab of the customised sleeve.
2 Switch on the Microlux by setting the on/off switch to the ‘on’
position. (Fig. 3)
You can check whether the Microlux is working by holding it in the
closed palm of your hand. You will hear a whistling sound if the
Microlux is functioning. If it does not whistle, check the sound output
and the position of the battery.
Using the Microlux
Inserting the Microlux in your ear
If you have two Microlux hearing capsules, make sure you do not
switch them, because the programming for the left ear is often different
from that for the right ear.
1 Grip the assembled Microlux by both pull tabs and insert it loosely
into the auditory canal. (Fig. 4)
The Microlux with the red identication dot is for your right ear,
the Microlux with the blue identication dot is for your left ear.
The identication dot must point upwards when the Microlux is in
your ear.
2 Place your forenger or thumb behind both pull tabs at the
location of the programming contact and press the Microlux
further into your ear.
You may have to guide the Microlux upwards and backwards when
doing so, depending on the shape of the auditory canal.
If necessary, stretch the auditory canal with your other hand by
pulling your auricle upwards and backwards.
It may help to open your mouth wide when inserting the Microlux.
If necessary, massage the Microlux with the point of your forenger
to ease it further into the ear.
Note: It is not possible to insert the Microlux too deeply into the auditory
canal.
