4.
With your fingernail in each side of the base of the battery
holder, pull the battery holder out.
You can also use your keyring tool to help remove and store battery
holders for your BTE or Mini BTE Controller. Slide the keyring tool
onto the edge of the battery holder and pull the battery holder out
of the controller.
5.
Remove the flat batteries by tipping the battery holder to one
side and pushing each battery out. They slide out from one side
only.
To push the batteries out, try using the end of the controller or the
tip of your keyring tool.
6. With the positive battery terminal (the side with the holes)
facing down, slide the fresh batteries into place. Push them in
from the right hand side when viewed from the back of the
battery holder.
Do not force the batteries into place. They should fit easily.
Take care all the batteries have the holes facing down. Your processor
will only work for a very limited time if a battery is put in the wrong
way, and then all batteries will need to be replaced.
Positive battery terminal (this side facing downwards)
In older BTE battery holders, the bottom battery stands out a little
and appears not to be in position. This is normal.
7. Replace the battery holder by sliding it up from the bottom into
the controller until it clips into place.
In older BTE battery holders, the bottom battery will be correctly
placed when the battery holder is inside the controller.
