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 .
• Because of their size, it’s a good idea to change
and replace batteries above a table or desk to
reduce the risk of dropping the instrument or
battery .
• Dispose of used batteries immediately in the
proper waste or recycling container .
• Because batteries can 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 .

of the ear canal .
