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.

Using the charger

If you have the optional charger, refer to the charger instruction
manual for operating instructions. Use only the rechargeable
batteries delivered with the charger or available through your
Hearing Care Professional. The lifetime of a rechargeable battery
is approximately one
year, depending on individual use.
NOTE: Do not attempt to charge standard, non-rechargeable
batteries!
NOTE: Your hearing instrument may be turned off when removed
from the charger . If it is turned off it will need to be
turned on by using the push button or toggle, opening
and closing the battery door, or with the remote control.
