Important Battery Information
Low Battery Warning
When the battery voltage nears the end of its life, the MDHearingAid
provide a low battery warning signal. The initial warning will be three sets
of double beeps. At this point, the hearing aid is still functioning, but it is
recommended that the battery be replaced as soon as possible.
When the battery is too weak for further operation, the MDHearingAid
will issue six sets of double beeps (resembling a motor boat sound) and
then shut down all audio output of the Hearing Aid. At this point, the unit
will not function until a fresh battery is installed.
Do not leave exhausted "dead" batteries in the Hearing Aid,
as they may leak and damage the Hearing Aid. Discard/Recycle
the exhausted batteries.
Caution! Batteries can be harmful if swallowed. Keep batteries out of
reach of children and pets. If a battery is accidentally swallowed, seek
medical attention immediately, or call the National Battery Hotline
collect at 202-625-3333.
