3. Installation (Replacing Domes)

Follow these steps to safely replace the dome on your Oticon RITE hearing aid receiver:

1. Step 1: Remove the old dome. Gently grasp the old dome with your thumb and forefinger. Pull it straight off the receiver tube. Avoid twisting, as this may damage the receiver. Dispose of the old dome responsibly.
2. Step 2: Inspect the receiver. After removing the old dome, visually inspect the receiver tube for any wax buildup or debris. If necessary, gently wipe the receiver tube with a clean, dry cloth. Do not use liquids or sharp objects.
3. Step 3: Attach the new dome. Take a new Oticon PLUS size dome from the package. Align the opening of the new dome with the end of the receiver tube. Push the dome firmly onto the receiver until it is securely seated. You should feel a slight click or resistance, indicating it is properly attached.
4. Step 4: Verify attachment. Gently tug on the dome to confirm it is securely attached to the receiver. It should not come off easily. This step is crucial to prevent the dome from detaching in your ear.

If you encounter difficulty or uncertainty during the installation process, please consult your audiologist or refer to your hearing aid's specific instruction manual.

4. Operating (Daily Use)

Once the new dome is securely attached to your hearing aid receiver, you can insert the hearing aid into your ear as you normally would. Ensure the dome sits comfortably and creates a good seal within your ear canal. A proper seal is crucial for preventing feedback (whistling) and ensuring the best possible sound quality from your hearing aid.
