Gently close the battery compartment door. Avoid forcing the door
shut. If it does not close easily, check to see if the battery was inserted
properly. Once the battery is in its proper position, your instrument is
ready to operate.
Your hearing instrument may be programmed to inform you when the
battery should be replaced.
Refer to the low battery indicator information in the Operation section
(page 27) of this manual for further information.
Battery tips
• If a battery is accidentally swallowed, seek medical attention
immediately, or call the National Battery Hotline collect at
(202) 625-3333.
• Always use the recommended battery size for your hearing instrument.
The battery size information for your hearing instrument is located on
the feature card.
• Remove the battery from your instruments when not in use. This
prevents possible damage from expansion or leakage of the battery, if
the instruments are not fully turned off.
• Always carry spare batteries in the event that your current battery goes
dead. Place each spare battery in an individual, non-metallic container
to prevent contact with other batteries or metal objects, such as keys
or coins.
• Follow your local recycling rules for battery disposal
