Helpful Hints
• NEVER FORCE THE BATTERY DOOR SHUT;
this could result in serious damage; if the door
will not close securely, check that the battery
is inserted correctly.
• Do not open the battery door too far or damage is
likely to occur.
• Dispose of used batteries immediately in the proper
waste or recycling container.
• Batteries vary in size and performance. Your hearing
care professional is your best source for lifespan
estimates and verification that you are using the
proper size and type.
Battery Indicators
An indicator will sound when the battery voltage is low.
You have approximately five minutes* to replace the
battery. An indicator will sound just before the battery
stops working.
* Actual time between low battery indicator and shut down
will vary depending on environmental noise levels and
brand of battery used.
