permanent damage to the hearing instruments .

The replacement battery has to be of type: 13 zinc-air . Remove the protective seal from
the fresh battery and insert it in the battery door, with the plus side facing up . You will
recognize the plus side of the battery because it is marked with a + . Check whether the
+ symbols on the battery and on the battery door are on the same side . Close the battery
