TIPS ON BATTERIES
Your hearing instrument performance may vary due to the type of
batteries used. Always use the size that is recommended.
The battery should be removed from your instrument when it is not being
used. This prevents possible damage from expansion or leakage of the
battery, as well as discharge from the battery if the instrument is not fully
turned off.
Batteries can often be mistaken for medication due to their small size.
In the event a battery is accidentally swallowed, seek prompt medical
attention at the nearest emergency center, or call collect The National
Button Battery Hotline at (202) 625-3333.
Always carry spare batteries to use in the event that your battery should go
dead. Each spare battery should be placed in an individual nonmetallic
container to prevent contact with other batteries or metal objects such as
keys or coins.
Discharged batteries are likely to leak; remove discharged batteries from
hearing aid. Recycle batteries according to applicable national, state
and local regulations.
Batteries can be harmful if swallowed. Be sure to keep batteries out of the reach of small children,
pets, or persons of diminished mental capacity.
CAUTION!
