1 Place the measurement tool over the ear,

keeping the top line horizontal. With your eyes

at the same level as the ear, determine which

mark is closest to an imaginary line running

over the top of the ear canal. In this example,

the correct choice is size 2.

Power Molds will have a better  t if you

choose a slightly longer wire length than you

would when  tting a Power Dome. If the top

of the ear canal falls between two numbers on

the gauge, choose the higher number.

2 If the speaker unit wire is too long the hearing

instrument will fall back over the ear and the

microphones will point vertically instead of

horizontally. It is also unlikely that the receiver

wire will  t the contours of the ear correctly.

3 If the speaker unit wire is too short, it will

have a tendency to move out of the ear canal,

and the hearing instrument will lose stability

on the ear.

Selecting the Speaker unit Length

CN_ILLU_NR_Wearing instrument2_BW_HI_r

Four receiver lengths are available for both the M-Speaker and the P-Speaker. No. 1 is the shortest

while no. 4 is the longest. Before  tting Nano RITE hearing instruments, it is necessary to determine

the correct speaker unit length. The measurement procedure is the same for both the M-Speaker and

the P-Speaker.

Attaching the Speaker Unit to a Nano RITE Hearing System

Correct speaker unit attachment is imperative.

1 Slide the connector plug into the connector

socket of the instrument. Take care to align the

pins in the connector plug with the socket.

2 When the connector plug is correctly aligned,

push it gently into place.

3 Take the lock pin out of the packaging in which

the speaker unit is delivered (tweezers make

this easier). Insert the lock pin with the

tweezers.

4 Ensure that the lock pin is fully inserted into

the hearing instrument. Use the back side of

the tweezers tool if necessary.

5 To test the attachment of the speaker unit to

the hearing instrument, gently pull the speaker

wire near the connection to the hearing

instrument as shown. If the speaker comes

off, then it was not attached properly.

detaching the Speaker unit from a Nano RITE Hearing System

1 Use the pointed end of the disassembly tool to

push the lock pin free.

2 Hold the instrument rmly with one hand

and with the other hand hold the edge of the

connector plug between your thumb and

forenger.

3 Gently pull the connector plug out of the

socket. If it does not come out easily, verify

that the lock pin is completely free.

4 Avoid losing the lock pin due to the fact that

you will need it for reattaching the speaker to

the hearing instrument.

Do not attempt to detach the speaker unit

by pulling on the wire without pushing

the lock pin free. This could damage both

the speaker unit and the hearing

instrument.

M-Speaker Unit

The M-Speaker unit is suitable for mild to moderately severe losses and comes in four lengths. It can

be used for both instant and custom ttings.

1 To obtain a more secure hold in the ear canal,

an ear grip should be used. The same version

works for both the left and the right ear. Insert

the ear grip in the slot in the receiver as

shown, noting the orientation.

If the ear grip seems too long, it may be

trimmed to the desired length. Be careful not

to leave a sharp end when cutting since this

could cause irritation in the ear.

2 To remove the ear grip, push it in the opposite

direction.

CN_ILLU_NREarGripMspeakerAttaching4_BW_HI

During insertion, the top of the ear grip

should point towards the speaker wire as

illustrated. Pull the ear grip down until

the top disappears into the slot.

If inserted in the wrong direction, the

ear grip will not be oriented properly to

place in the concha.

Custom Molds for the M-Speaker

For custom  ttings two different types of molds can be attached to the M-Speaker. The Micro Mold

and the Lite Tip come with an adapter already inserted, colored red (right) or blue (left) to indicate

which ear. The color dot on the top of the custom mold indicates the front and top position in the ear

canal.

Tools for Custom Molds

To attach and detach the M-Speaker unit to and from a custom mold, two different tools are designed

to be used.

P-Speaker Unit for Power Fittings

The P-Speaker unit contains a high performance receiver which requires ample room in the ear canal.

To determine if your client’s ear canal can accommodate this receiver, please use the measurement

gauge supplied. This step is necessary for both instant ttings with the Power Dome and custom

ttings with molds.

Using the Measurement Gauge

1 Hold the handle of the measurement

gauge so that the at side of the handle

is up.

2 Insert the gauge into the ear canal (with

the at side up) until the size indicator is

fully surrounded by the ear canal. If the

size indicator ts easily within the ear

canal, the client is an excellent candidate

for the P-Speaker unit.

3 If the size indicator does not t in the ear

canal but is hidden behind the tragus when

viewing from a 45° angle, the P-Speaker

with Canal Mold can still be produced.

4 If the size indicator is visible when viewed

from a 45° angle, the client is NOT a candidate

for the P-Speaker unit.

Size indicator Flat side

Handle

The gauge must be cleaned and sterilized

properly before re-use. First clean any

visible cerumen from the gauge with a

clean dry or moist tissue. Next soak the

gauge in a cold sterilant for at least

hours.
