Preparation
My hearing instrument has a tamper resistant
battery compartment. See below.
Tamper Resistant Battery Compartment
To lock the battery door:
Use an appropriate tool to slide the recessed switch to
the left until it “clicks” and the colored mark is visible.
To unlock the battery door:
Slide the recessed switch to the right until it “clicks”
and the colored mark disappears.
Locking the door is not required for operation.
WARNINGS
Batteries are dangerous if swallowed. To help
prevent the accidental ingestion of batteries:
Keep out of reach of children and pets
Check your medications before taking them –
batteries have been mistaken for pills
Never put batteries in your mouth, as they can
easily be swallowed

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.
