Common Problems When First Using Your Hearing Aids

Why is there no sound coming from the hearing aid?
  1. Be sure the hearing aid is fully charged. Make sure the protective sticker is removed from the charging port on the hearing aids.
  2. Make sure the hearing is turned on.
  3. Make sure you have removed any ear wax from your ear canal.
  4. Be sure there is nothing blocking the microphone on the front of the hearing aid.
  5. Be sure there is nothing blocking the sound outlet (where the earbud is placed).
Why is there a screeching or howling sound coming from the hearing aid?
  1. This is a normal sound that comes from hearing aids prior to being placed into the ear canal.
  2. If the hearing aid still screeches while in the ear canal, you may need to try a different size earbud. When properly fitted you should not hear screeching when in the ear.
