Changing the battery

If you hear four rapid beep-tones while wearing your
hearing aid, it is an indication that the battery is near-
ly  exhausted.  Once  the  battery  is  totally  exhausted,
the hearing aid will be completely silent. Exactly how
long  the  hearing  aid  will  function  after  the  beep-
tones  varies  from  one  case  to  another.  We  recom-
mend that you always have a spare battery with you.

Never leave an exhausted battery in the hearing aid.
Exhausted batteries may leak, which could damage
the hearing aid. When changing batteries, it is a good
idea to hold the hearing aid over a table or a carpet,
in case you drop the hearing aid or battery.
