What you need:
Wax guard replacement tools: A case containing multiple small, cylindrical wax guards.
Hearing aids: Two stylized in-ear hearing aids.
Dome kit (optional): A sealed bag containing multiple domes, and a single dome.
Step 1:
Open the case and remove one of the tools.

Step 2:
Identify the two ends of the tool.
- White end: New wax guard
- Pointed, ridged end: Removes old wax guard
[Illustration: A tool with two ends. One end is white and flat, labeled "White end: New wax guard". The other end is pointed and ridged, labeled "Pointed, ridged end: Removes old wax guard".]
Step 3:
On one of the hearing aids, firmly pull the dome off of the receiver. The white part under it is the old wax guard.

Step 4:
Press the pointed end of the tool into the old wax guard, then pull out to remove.
Note: To prevent damage, don't insert anything into the open receiver underneath.

Step 5:
Flip the tool so that the new wax guard is pointing down.

Step 6:
Fully insert the new wax guard so that it's flush with the top of the receiver, then pull the tool straight out.

Step 7:
Check that the wax guard is flush with the top of the receiver and not poking out.
Note: This helps prevent the wax guard from falling off in your ear canal.

Step 8:
Get a dome to put on the receiver. Either choose your size from a dome kit (available separately) or reuse the old dome.

Step 9:
Align the opening of the dome with the receiver and slide the dome onto the receiver.
[Illustration: Diagrams showing the dome being aligned with the receiver and slid onto it.]
Step 10:
Gently tug the dome to make sure it's securely fastened.
Note: This helps prevent the dome from falling off in your ear canal.

Step 11:
Repeat steps 1 – 10 for the other hearing aid. When you're done, throw away the used tools and wax guards.
