OTC Hearing Aids
User Manual
1
Warnings
This OTC hearing aid is for users who are 18 and older. People who are
younger than 18 with hearing loss should see a doctor, preferably an ENT,
because they may need medical testing and management. Hearing loss can
affect speech and learning, so professional fitting and continuing care are
also important.
WARNING: When to see a doctor
If you have any of the problems listed below, please see a doctor, preferably
an Ear, Nose and Throat doctor (an ENT).
• Your ear has a birth defect or an unusual shape. Your ear was injured
or deformed in an accident.
• You saw blood, pus, or fluid coming out of your ear in the past
6 months.
• Your ear feels painful or uncomfortable.
• You have a lot of ear wax, or you think something could be in your ear.
Warnings
WARNING: If you are younger than 18, do not use this. You should go to
a doctor, preferably an Ear, Nose and Throat doctor (an ENT), because
your condition needs specialized care. Over-the-counter hearing aids are
only for users who are age 18 or older.

Warnings Warnings
• You get really dizzy or have a feeling of spinning or swaying
(called vertigo).
• Your hearing changed suddenly in the past 6 months.
• Your hearing changes; it gets worse then gets better again.
• You have worse hearing in one ear.
• You hear ringing or buzzing in only one ear.
WARNING: This hearing aid should not cause pain when inserting it.
Remove this device from your ear if it causes pain or discomfort when you
insert or place it. To try again, make sure to follow the instructions. If you
feel pain or discomfort again, contact the manufacturer. If your pain or
discomfort doesn’t go away, contact your hearing healthcare professional.
You can also report this to FDA as an adverse event according to the
instructions that appear later.
CAUTIONS AND NOTICES
Caution: This is not hearing protection.
You should remove this device if you experience overly loud sounds,
whether short or long lasting. If you’re in a loud place, you should use the
right kind of hearing protection instead of wearing this device. In general, if
you would use ear plugs in a loud place, you should remove this device and
use ear plugs.
Caution: The sound output should not be uncomfortable or painful.
You should turn down the volume or remove the device if the sound output
is uncomfortably loud or painful. If you consistently need to turn the volume
down, you may need to further adjust your device.
Caution: You might need medical help if a piece gets stuck in your ear.
If any part of your hearing aid, like the eartip, gets stuck in your ear, and you
can’t easily remove it with your fingers, get medical help as soon as you can.
You should not try to use tweezers or cotton swabs because they can push
the part farther into your ear, injuring your eardrum or ear canal, possibly
seriously.
Note: If you remain concerned, consult a professional.
If you try this device and continue to struggle with or remain concerned
about your hearing, you should consult with a hearing healthcare professional.
Note: What you might expect when you start using a hearing aid.
A hearing aid can benefit many people with hearing loss. However, you should
know it will not restore normal hearing, and you may still have some difficulty
hearing over noise. Further, a hearing aid will not prevent or improve a
medical condition that causes hearing loss.

Warnings
People who start using hearing aids sometimes need a few weeks to get
used to them. Similarly, many people find that training or counseling can
help them get more out of their devices.
If you have hearing loss in both ears, you might get more out of using
hearing aids in both, especially in situations that make you tired from
listening – for example, noisy environments.
Note:Tell FDA about injuries, malfunctions, or other adverse events.
To report a problem involving your hearing aid, you should submit
information to FDA as soon as possible after the problem. FDA calls them
“adverse events” and they might include: skin irritation in your ear, injury
from the device (like cuts or scratches, or burns from an overheated
battery), pieces of the device getting stuck in your ear, suddenly worsening
hearing loss from using the device, etc.
Instructions for reporting are available at https:/www.fda.gov/Safety/
MedWatch, or call 1-800-FDA-1088. You can also download a form to mail
to FDA.
Note: If you experience side effects, such as skin reaction or accelerated
accumulation of ear wax accumulation, contact a physician, preferably an
Ear, Nose and Throat physician.

Tips for Getting Started
• Please refer to Your Journey to Better Hearing for a guide to
wearing your hearing aids for the first 21 days.
• Before wearing your new device, we recommend removing any
wax build up in the ear canal. A professional ear cleaning may
be necessary, as excess wax may cause feedback.
• Wear the hearing aids for a few hours the first day. Try to
increase the amount of time you wear them each day. Start by
wearing them in a quiet environment, gradually working your
way to more challenging environments, such as restaurants.
• Initially, wear the hearing aids at home. You’ll notice sounds you
may not have heard in a while, like the refrigerator humming.
Over time, your brain will learn to adapt to these new sounds.
• Have one-on-one conversations in a quiet environment.
• Listen to an audio book or podcast.
• Noisy environments can be quite challenging for new hearing

aid users (and even normal hearing people). Be patient as you
explore the more challenging listening environments.
• Ask your friends and family to help you by speaking clearly and
slowly. It will also be very helpful if they face you as they speak.
• Everyone’s experience with adapting to hearing aids is different.
Be patient as you go through the process of adjusting to them.
Most likely, your hearing has decreased over a few years time.
Your brain is now receiving more auditory information than it
has in a while and will take some time to adapt.
• Feedback/chirping can be expected when the hearing aid is
inserted in the ear with the power on. Feedback can also be
expected if you place your hand next to your ear with the
hearing aid on.
• Wind noise/wind shear may be experienced when outdoors or
any time wind turbulence over the microphone is present.
