To get the most snug fit and performance from your HP Hearing PRO OTC Hearing Aids, it is essential you have the best Ear Tip selected.
Here's a short video to show you how to fit Ear Tips on your HP Hearing PRO OTC Hearing Aids:
The following video demonstrates how to fit your HP Hearing PRO in your ears:
Main takeaways from this video include:
- Test as many of the Ear Tip sizes and materials as possible. Going to a larger sized Ear Tip may seem counter intuitive, however we recommend trying this to achieve a 'snug' fit.
- Ensure that the correct hearing aid is placed in each ear (look for “L” and “R” engravings on the interior of each hearing aid).
- Insert the hearing aids into your ear canal in the vertical position with the Ear Tip down and then gently twist them towards the back of your head to achieve a complete seal.
- To achieve a snug or better seal, with your other hand, reach around and gently pull upwards on the top of your ear while inserting the hearing aids.
- Hearing aids should remain securely in the ear canal once properly fitted.
HP Hearing PRO OTC Hearing Aids are pre-fitted with medium (M) silicone Ear Tips.

Why fit matters
The HP Hearing PRO OTC Hearing Aids should feel snug when they are in your ears. Having a snug fit will ensure your hearing experience and the sound quality of the hearing aids is optimized.
Failure to achieve a proper seal may lead to some of these issues:
- A lack of bass
- A “tinny” or “hollow” sound effect
- Feedback
- Reduced sound quality
- Risk of hearing aids falling out of your ears
