3 Your exact usage and times may differ depending on various
conditions and use patterns. It is a normal phenomenon to hear
some high-pitched whistling or buzzing when the hearing aid is at
a high volume level and not fitted well into the ear as a result of
mic feedback. If this occurs, lower the volume and adjust the
hearing aid within the ear. Also check to make sure you are
wearing the best size ear domes to ensure a proper fit in the ear

the ear.
