How do I know they will fit me?
Go Lite & Go Prime Hearing Aids

The curved design, and multiple dome sizes of the Go OTC hearing aids allow for the most comfortable fit. Each device comes with 3 different dome sizes, being preassembled with a medium-sized dome. You can choose a dome that allows the device to feel most comfortable and secure in your ear.

Note: Due to individual ear differences, the OTC hearing aid might not fit as deeply into the ear canal as desired. If the OTC hearing aids feel comfortable and secure with no apparent feedback/whistling then they should still offer the desired benefit.


Go Ultra OTC Hearing Aids

What are the operating hours of your support center?
Our product experts are ready to assist you during the week, Monday to Sunday from 9:00 am - 8:00 pm EST.
How do I know what degree of hearing loss I have?
To determine what degree of hearing loss you have, you will need to complete a hearing test.
Will these hearing aids work for severe hearing loss?
Go Hearing OTC hearing aids are designed for perceived mild to moderate hearing loss. More significant hearing losses require fittings that have to be provided by a hearing healthcare practitioner.
Do I have to wear both hearing aids?
No, but by wearing a hearing aid in each ear, you will have far better sound quality than if you wear only one hearing aid. Your ability to locate where sounds are coming from will also be improved.

Use, Maintenance and Care

Does it take time to get accustomed to wearing hearing aids?

If you’re a first-time wearer, it can take some time to get used to the hearing aids. How quickly you will adjust often depends on how frequently you wear them.

We recommend that you start wearing your hearing aids 1 to 2 hours per day in a relatively quiet environment. After a few days, you can start to expose yourself to more sounds and noises and increase the wearing time week by week.

In the beginning (first 4 weeks) you might notice an increase in the noise levels around you. Background noise and unfamiliar sounds may seem too loud. This will improve over time the more you wear the hearing aids. Voices and the television may be clearer. You may hear the internal workings of the hearing aid and your own voice may also sound quite loud and hollow. This is normal.

Between weeks 5 and 8 you should start getting used to your hearing aids.

Do you have any tips on how to improve your hearing?

Here are a few tips to help you improve your chances of hearing better.

  • Ask people to get your attention before speaking.
  • Ask people to slow down and to speak as clearly as possible.
  • Ask specific questions about things you did not hear properly.
  • Ask people to repeat the words you missed or to rephrase what they said, if necessary.
  • When attending meetings, religious gatherings, or social events, arrive as early as possible so that you can sit in the front of the room, closest to the speaker.
  • When talking in groups, try to ensure that everyone’s face is visible to you, in order to assist with the understanding of speech.
  • Try to stand about 3-5 feet away from the person you are talking to.
  • Ask the person you are talking to to stand in good lighting.
  • Don’t try to speak to someone who is not in the same room as you.
  • When having a conversation, try to minimize or remove any background noise such as the television or radio.
  • Remember to stay calm and not to panic.

How do I clean my hearing aids?

Wearing a hearing aid can increase the amount of earwax your ear produces.

  • It is important to clean your hearing aids regularly.
  • Use a wet wipe, soft cloth, or tissue to wipe the surface of the device.
  • Use the brush to clean away any traces of wax from around the sound outlet and wax guard.
  • If the microphone opening is clogged by dust or dirt, carefully brush away visible signs of debris from the openings.

Cleaning your Go Ultra OTC Hearing Aids

If well cared for, your Go Ultra hearing aid/s will last for many years. Your hearing aid should be cleaned daily in order to ensure optimal functioning and to prolong the lifespan of your hearing aid.


Note: If you have two Go Ultra hearing aids, clean one hearing aid at a time. This will ensure that your left and right hearing aids do not accidently get switched around.


DOMES
The dome of your hearing aid needs to be kept free of earwax at all times. Earwax will prevent the amplified sound from entering your ear. Therefore, it is important to clean your dome daily. Do not use sharp objects to dislodge debris from the dome.


Use a soft tissue or the cleaning brush provided to clean the dome of your hearing aid.


Note: Even if your domes are well cared for, they will need to be replaced every 2-3 months due to general wear and tear. Slim tubes wax, dirt or condensation can block your slim tube and prevent sound from going through. Therefore, your slim tube must be cleaned weekly. If a blockage is noted, follow the steps below to remove the blockage.

  1. Remove the slim tube from your hearing aid.
  2. Use a damp cloth to clean the outside of your slim tube.
  3. Thread the cleaning wire provided all the way through your slim tube to remove any earwax or foreign particles. The cleaning wire should be inserted at the point where your slim tube attaches to your hearing aid and must be pushed all the way through the slim tube and out through the dome.
  4. Do not submerge or rinse your slim tube in water, as there is a risk that water may become lodged in the slim tube. If water does get into your slim tube, blow through the tube and make sure that it has dried properly before you reattach it onto your hearing aid.
  5. Reattach your slim tube to your hearing aid. Make sure that the angle is correct after you have connected your slim tube to your hearing aid.

Note: Take caution not to bend the slim tube back and forth or sideways causing kinks in the tube. A kink will obstruct the soundflow to your ear.


Note: After 4 to 6 months of regular use, your slim tube will start to harden and might turn yellow. This will affect the sound quality of your hearing aid. When this occurs, it is time to replace your slim tube.


HEARING AID BODY Use a soft dry cloth or tissue to gently wipe down the body of your hearing aid. This is an electronic device. Don’t use any liquids (water, solvents or cleaning agents) on the body of your hearing aid. Should you do so, your hearing aids will break.


Note: Make sure to handle your hearing aid over a soft surface during the cleaning process in order to prevent damage to the hearing aid, should you drop it.


How do I take care of my hearing aids?
  • It is important to wear your devices regularly, as well as clean them on a regular basis.
  • Do not use hairspray, spray paint, or other sticky sprays when using the devices.
  • Keep the hearing aid away from direct sunlight or moisture and water.
  • Store the hearing aids in the charging case while not in use.
  • Avoid any physical shock (e.g. dropping) to the hearing aids.
  • For optimal performance, use a dehumidifier or drying capsules on a daily basis to remove moisture from the devices.
  • Store your hearing aids where you can easily find them, but safely out of reach of pets and children.

How do I insert my hearing aid?

The hearing aid comes in different colors and is marked with an R and an L.

Right ear: Red color and marked with R.
Left ear: Blue color and marked with L.

Align the hearing aid, as per the instructions below, before inserting them.

Go Lite OTC hearing aid:
Right ear: Volume control wheel at the bottom.
Left ear: Volume control wheel at the top.

Go Prime OTC hearing aid:
Right ear: Volume/program control at the bottom.
Left ear: Volume/program control at the top.


Tips for inserting and removing the device:

  • To insert the hearing aid, hold it with the pull wire between your thumb and forefinger.
  • Gently pull downwards on your earlobe with your free hand to make it easier to insert.
  • Gently pull on the pull wire to remove the device.
  • Turn the volume down the first time you try the hearing aid.
  • It is normal for the device to give temporary feedback or whistle when you insert it or take it out.

Note:

Due to individual ear differences, the hearing aid might not fit as deeply into the ear canal as desired. If the hearing aids feel comfortable and secure with no apparent feedback/whistling then they should still offer the desired benefit.


Go Ultra OTC Hearing Aids


INSERTION

It is simple to position your hearing aid on your ear, but it can take some practice.

  1. Begin by placing the hearing aid body behind your ear.
  2. Hold the slim tube between your thumb and forefinger, at the bend closest to the dome. The dome should face towards the entrance of the ear canal (this is the cavity that runs all the way to your eardrum).
  3. Gently press the dome into your ear canal until the slim tube sits comfortably against the side of your head.
  4. If you are struggling to insert the dome into your ear, use your opposite hand to gently pull your earlobe downwards. This will straighten the ear canal slightly, allowing the dome to be inserted more easily.
  5. Place the retention wire in the bowl of your ear to ensure that your hearing aid remains securely in place.
  6. The top bend of the slim tube should fit comfortably around the top of your ear and should sit flat against the skin.
  7. You can use a mirror to ensure that your hearing aid is positioned correctly onto your ear.

Note: If the retention wire on your slim tube is too long, you may cut the length slightly. Be careful not to shorten the length too much, as this could affect how well the hearing aid remains in your ear.


Note: You might need a different sized dome and/or slim tube for each ear. If the OTC hearing aids feel comfortable and secure with no apparent feedback/whistling then they should still offer the desired benefit.


Tip: The dome should be completely, or almost completely, in the ear canal. The ear tip cannot touch the eardrum. Proper insertion of the dome is key to getting enough loudness and to avoiding whistling. If you wear eyeglasses, first position your hearing aid on your ear before you put your glasses on.


REMOVAL

  1. Begin by removing the retention wire from the bowl of your ear.
  2. Hold the slim tube at the bend closest to the dome, between your thumb and forefinger and gently pull the slim tube and dome out of your ear canal.
  3. Remove the hearing aid body from behind your ear.

Note: Make sure not to pull the slim tube and dome out of the ear canal by pulling on the body of the hearing aid as this may cause your slim tube to break over time.


What happens if they break?
Give our product experts a call on (302) 754 3190 and they will be able to assist you.
How often do I have to replace the domes?
We recommend that you replace your dome with a new one of similar size and shape approximately every 3 months to ensure that your hearing aid performs optimally.
How often should I get my ears checked for wax?
We recommend that you have your ears checked for wax by a healthcare practitioner at least twice a year, or whenever you see your healthcare practitioner for an appointment. You can also visit a hearing healthcare practitioner.
How often do I have to replace the wax guards?
A wax guard is a very small screen that fits onto your hearing aid to protect it from becoming clogged with wax or debris. It protects your device and keeps it working optimally. We recommend that you regularly clean your hearing aid and replace the wax guard as soon as you suspect that your hearing aid is not working as well as it should, or at least once a month.
How do I replace the wax guard?

Replace the wax guards one hearing aid at a time. Remove the dome from the hearing aid. Use the wax guard installation tool. The tool has one, sharp, black and white end where the wax guard is mounted. Hold onto the device and gently push the flat black end into the hole of the old white wax guard on the device. Gently pull the tool away from the device. At this point the used wax guard should have come off. Turn the tool around and push the new wax guard into the hole where the used wax guard was. Pull the tool away from your device. Discard the tool and the used wax guard.

How do I identify my right from my left hearing aid?

Go Ultra OTC Hearing Aids

How often should I replace the slim tubes?

Go Ultra OTC Hearing Aids


Generally, after 4 to 6 months of regular use, your slim tube will start to harden and might turn yellow. This will affect the sound quality of your hearing aid. When this occurs, it is time to replace your slim tube. It is recommended to change the slim tubes every 4-6 months, sooner if necessary. During your regular cleaning routine, inspect the tube for any signs of damage and if any cracks, kinks or stubborn blockages are found, replace the slim tube straightaway.

How do I switch the hearing aids on and off

Turn your hearing aids OFF by pressing the same Switch A for 3 seconds. You will hear a voice prompt “POWER OFF”.


How do I select the correct size dome?

Go Ultra OTC Hearing Aids


Each Go Ultra hearing aid comes with two different types of domes, namely; open domes and closed domes. Both open and closed domes come in three different sizes namely small, medium and large.



Try the different sizes of the two types of domes to find the most comfortable fit for your ear canal without any feedback (whistling) present. The dome should fit snugly in the ear canal opening, so that the ear canal is properly sealed. In other words, the dome shouldn’t feel like it is falling out of the ear or that it has to be squeezed or forced into the ear.


If it feels like the dome is falling out of your ear, it means that the dome is most likely too small for your ear. Try changing your dome to one that is a size larger.


If it feels like you have to squeeze or force the dome into your ear, it means that the dome is most likely too large for your ear. Try changing your dome to one that is a size smaller. It is useful to know when to use a closed or open dome. OPEN DOME: Open domes have holes in them, to prevent the ears from feeling blocked. This type of dome can help in cases where your own voice seems too loud or the hearing aid seems too noisy. CLOSED DOME: Closed domes do not have holes in them and are used when the hearing aid seems too quiet. Closed domes can also help to prevent your hearing aid from whistling at higher volume levels.


Caution: Be careful not to force or push the hearing aid too deep into the ear. This can cause pain or discomfort and harm the eardrum (tympanic membrane).


How do I change the slim tubes on the hearing aids

Go Ultra OTC Hearing Aids


Each Go hearing aid comes with a standard size 2 slim tube attached to it. Should you need to replace this slim tube, follow the steps below.

1. Remove the slim tube by holding the wider/thicker part of the hearing aid body with one hand. With the opposite hand, firmly grip the base of the slim tube where it connects to the hearing aid. Turn the slim tube 90 degrees anticlockwise and pull the tube off the hearing aid.


2. Attach the new slim tube, by aligning the base of the slim tube with the hearing aid and gently, but firmly push it onto the hearing aid until it clicks into place. Once attached correctly, the base of the slim tube should align with the body of the hearing aid.


Note: Make sure to grip the base of the slim tube and not the tube itself.


Note: Be careful not to bend the slim tube sideways. This will cause a kink or narrowing of the tube resulting in the obstruction of sound flow through the tube.

How do I change the domes on the hearing aids

Go Ultra OTC Hearing Aids


Removing dome from slim tube:

  1. Hold onto the end of the slim tube that is closest to the dome.
  2. Use your other hand to grasp the dome between your forefinger and your thumb and carefully pull off the dome from the end of the slim tube.

Attaching new dome to slim tube:

  1. Take the new dome and push the membranes of the dome outwards as illustrated.
  2. Ensure that the dome is placed correctly onto the slim tube as illustrated below. The dome should be firmly attached.

You should be able to tug it slightly without removing it.

How do I select the correct size to slim tube?

Go Ultra OTC Hearing Aids


In order to select the correct slim tube length, it is important to first measure the size of your ear by using the ear measuring tool provided.



This measuring tool will allow you to determine which slim tube would be the most comfortable fit for your ear. Slim tubes are available in three different lengths, sizes 1, 2 and 3, with size 1 being the shortest in length and size 3 being the longest. The ear measuring tool will indicate which slim tube length will be the best fit for your ear. Follow the steps below in order to complete this process.


1. The ear measuring tool has two colors, red and blue. Begin by placing the measuring tool over your ear as illustrated. The red side must be showing when it is over your right ear and the blue side must be showing when it is over your left ear.


2. Take a photo of your ear so that you can clearly see the measuring tool on your ear. You may need to ask a family member or friend to assist you with this step, if you experience any difficulties.


3. On your ear measuring tool, locate the closest number that is most parallel to the top of the opening of your ear canal. This number will be needed in order to select the correct slim tube length.


4. At the bottom of each slim tube, you will find a number in either blue or red. Just as with the ear measuring tool, a slim tube with a red number on it, will indicate that the slim tube is intended for the right ear and a slim tube with a blue number on it, will indicate that the slim tube is intended for the left ear. Once you have determined the correct slim tube length for your ear, find the slim tube with the correct number and color that is needed for your hearing aid. Select the correct slim tube recommended by the ear measuring tool. If you have two hearing aids, repeat this process for your opposite ear.


Why are there different dome sizes?

Go Ultra OTC Hearing Aids


It is useful to know when to use a closed or open dome.


OPEN DOMES have holes in them to prevent the ears from feeling blocked. This type of dome can help in cases where your own voice seems too loud or the hearing aid seems too noisy.


CLOSED DOMES do not have holes in them and are used when the hearing aids seem too quiet. Closed domes can also help to prevent your hearing aid from whistling at higher volume levels


Depending on your degree of loss an open dome or a dome that is too small, whether open or closed, can contribute to your hearing aid whistling (called feedback). When this occurs, try using a closed dome or a slightly bigger dome.


Try the different types and sizes of domes to find the most comfortable fit for your ear canal without causing any whistling. The dome should fit snugly in the ear canal opening, so that the ear canal is properly sealed. In other words, the dome shouldn’t feel like it is falling out of the ear or that it has to be squeezed or forced into the ear.


If it feels like the dome is falling out of your ear, it means that the dome is most likely too small for your ear. Try changing your dome to one that is a size larger. If it feels like you have to squeeze or force the dome into your ear, it means that the dome is most likely too large for your ear. Try changing your dome to one that is a size smaller.



Note: Ears are not identical and you might need a different dome for each ear.


Note: Be careful not to force or push the dome and slim tube too deep into the ear canal. This can cause pain or discomfort and potentially harm the eardrum (tympanic membrane).


Why would you opt for a different size slim tube?

Go Ultra OTC Hearing Aids


The slim tubes come in three different sizes namely 1, 2 & 3. Size 1 is the shortest tube and size 3 is the longest tube. Once correctly inserted, if the hearing aid feels loose over the top of the ear or has a tendency to fall off, try using a shorter length tube. If you experience discomfort over the top of the ear where the slim tube rests, try using a longer slim tube to ease the pressure off the top of your ear.

Storing rechargeable hearing aids for extended periods of time.

Go Ultra OTC Hearing Aids


If you are not planning on using your hearing aids for an extended period of time, make sure to fully charge them and store them at a temperature between 32°F – 86°F (0°C – 30°C) for best battery performance.


It is recommended to fully charge your hearing aids and charging case at least every 6 months even if they are not being used. This prevents the devices from going into a “deep discharging” state which is detrimental for battery health in the long run.


Remember to store your devices in a safe, memorable place out of reach of children and pets.


Do the hearing aids or charging case contain magnetic material?

Go Ultra OTC Hearing Aids


Yes, magnetic material is contained within the hearing aids and charging case. Consult your physician on whether this might affect any implantable medical device you may have.


Does streaming drain hearing aid battery life more quickly?

Go Ultra OTC Hearing Aids


Yes, when using the streaming functionality, your hearing aid batteries are likely to drain more quickly. Drainage depends on the frequency and duration of streaming activities.


Your devices can be used for up to 20 hrs on a full charge when not connected to Bluetooth. When Bluetooth is connected but not streaming your hearing aids will last up to 8rs and approximately 2.5hr - 3hrs when streaming phone calls, music or media.


The recommendation is to charge your hearing aids at the end of each day, overnight or when not in use, even if they have not been fully drained. Constant charging will not degrade the battery. In fact, the opposite is true.

Troubleshooting

I can’t hear with the devices or there is no sound coming from the hearing aid.
  1. This could be because the batteries are too low.
    Charge the devices as the first call to action and see if the problem persists.

  2. It could be caused by a blocked sound outlet or microphone opening.
    Clean the devices and see if the problem persists.

  3. It could be because the volume is set too low on the devices.
    Turn up the volume on the devices and see if the problem persists.
The hearing aids whistle, even after insertion
  1. Whistling can happen if the device is not fitting correctly.
    Remove the device and try a larger dome size.
    Make sure that you are inserting the correct device into your ear and that you aligned the device correctly prior to inserting it into the ear.

  2. The volume on the hearing aid might be too high, so turn down the volume of the device and see if the problem persists.

  3. It might also be that there is a buildup of too much wax in the ear.
    If you have done all the above and the problem persists, have your ears checked by a hearing healthcare practitioner.
The sound seems intermittent
  1. The hearing aid could be blocked with moisture.
    Clean the device, and leave it to dry for more than 24hrs.

  2. It could also be due to a partially blocked sound outlet or microphone opening. Clean the devices and see if this problem persists.

  3. Finally, it could be a defective hearing aid.

Legal, Orders and Shipping

How long will shipping take? When will my order arrive?
Delivery usually takes 5 working days to major centers, but can take longer if your address is in an outlying area.

FSA & HSA

How can I use my FSA/HSA account to buy hearing aids?
If you have one of these accounts already set up, hearing aids are reimbursed in the same way as any other covered medical expense, such as eyeglasses or dental work. If you have an HSA credit card, you would just pay for the hearing aids with your credit card. Go Hearing accepts all HSA credit and debit cards - please note this only applies to the Go Lite and Go Prime hearing aids.
I have an FSA/HSA account but I don’t have enough money in it to pay for hearing aids. What should I do?
If you need hearing aids but don’t have sufficient funds in your account, speak to your plan holder about increasing your deposit to cover the hearing aids you are looking for. Remember these funds are deposited tax free so you can still save significantly on your aids - please note this only applies to the Go Lite and Go Prime hearing aids.
I don’t have an FSA or HSA. What are they?
If you are covered under an employer’s health insurance plan, you may have access to a flexible spending account (FSA) or a health savings account (HSA), where you can store funds intended for out-of-pocket medical expenses. The funds in these accounts can be used for medical costs not covered by your insurance, including buying hearing aids. An HSA/FSA allows account holders to pay for current health care expenses and save for those in the future. Its advantage is that contributions are tax-deductible, or if made through a payroll deduction, are pre-tax. Second, the interest earned on the account balance is tax-free - please note this only applies to the Go Lite and Go Prime hearing aids.
How do they work?
You deposit money as a payroll deduction (FSA) or directly (HSA). When it comes time to actually make the purchase, it’s easy to access the funds in your account. Often you can access your FSA and HSA funds via a debit card, which can be used when you make your purchase. If you don’t have access to a debit card, you can submit receipts from your purchases to your insurance company or employer for reimbursement from your account. Since this is your money simply stored in an outside account, there is never a debate about how much insurance companies will reimburse, as long as it’s a qualified expense - please note this only applies to the Go Lite and Go Prime hearing aids.
How much time do I have to use these accounts?
HSA accounts roll over into the following year. But if you’re planning on using FSA funds, remember that you need to make your purchase by December 31 to be eligible to use your account - please note this only applies to the Go Lite and Go Prime hearing aids.

OTC Hearing Aids

What are OTC hearing aids?
Over-the-counter hearing aids are exactly what they sound like - hearing aids you can purchase over-the-counter (OTC) without the need for a prescription, examination, or audiologist fitting.
Are they safe?
OTC hearing aids are still regulated by the FDA which makes them safe to use. There might be some concern over their safety due to the fact that they are sold OTC but you can rest assured that OTC hearing aids are still subjected to stringent regulation by the FDA to ensure your safety.
Are they as good as normal hearing aids?
Absolutely! OTC hearing aids still offer the same incredible technology as hearing aids that you would receive through an audiologist, just in a more affordable package. OTC hearing aids can also be acquired without the need for a prescription or examination, which eliminates the costly medical bills of visiting a hearing healthcare professional.
Are they still customizable?
