Changing Batteries; Battery Tips - Cochlear Baha BP100 Manual Del Usuario

Changing batteries

When there is approximately one hour of remaining
battery power, 2 beeps/flashes occur 3 times to let
you know that soon the battery will need replacing.
At this time you may experience low amplification.
If the battery runs down completely, the sound
processor will beep/flash and then stop working.
Use one of the included batteries (zinc-air, non-
rechargeable) as a replacement. The batteries
included in the sound processor kit reflect Cochlear's
latest recommendations. Contact your hearing care
professional for additional batteries.

Battery tips

Battery life decreases as soon as the battery is
•
exposed to air (plastic strip is removed).
Battery life depends on daily usage, volume setting,
•
sound environment, program setting, and battery
strength.
20
To maximize battery life, switch off the sound processor
•
when not in use.
Keep extra batteries available if using an FM receiver as
•
they have high energy consumption rates.
If a battery leaks, immediately replace it.
•
Note: The inside of the battery door is lined with a
moisture barrier that prevents dust and water from
entering the sound processor. To ensure an effective
seal, Cochlear recommends replacing the battery door
every 6 months. In humid environments, replace the
battery door more frequently.
Contact your hearing care professional
for additional battery doors.

hatch open to expose the battery.
