BTE USER GUIDE
Changing The Battery
The life of your hearing aid battery will vary depending
on your hearing program, the listening situation, and
the length of daily use. A tone sequence or Voice Alert
will tell you when the battery in your hearing aid is low.
When you hear the warning, change the battery in your
hearing aid. If the battery gets so low that it cannot
supply enough power to your hearing aid, a SmartTone
™
power off sequence will play and the aid will shut off.
Place a new battery in the aid to turn it back on. If your
hearing aid is not in use, open the battery door to slow
the battery use.
Always remove the battery if your aid is not in use for
long periods.
Battery Type
Rechargeable batteries are not recommended.
A zinc-air battery is recommended. Your hearing aid
uses a #13 battery.
Note
Batteries are small and can be harmful if swallowed.
Keep batteries out of the reach of pets and small
children. In case of ingestion, contact your physician.
