Battery Size
Your hearing instruments use a size 13 battery. Your
batteries have an orange mark on the package.
It is very important to use the correct size and type
battery for your hearing instrument.
Because of their size, it’s a
good idea to change and
replace batteries at a table
or desk to reduce the risk
of dropping the instrument
or battery.
To insert or replace the
battery, open the battery
compartment by placing your
fingernail under the edge of
the swing-out door and gently
pull away from the instrument.
Do not open the battery door
too far or damage is likely
to occur.
Changing Batteries
Remove the old battery by
pushing it out the top of the
fully opened door.
DO NOT pull it out the side
of the door.
Place the new battery in the compartment
with the plus (+) sign facing up.
Close the battery compartment by swinging the door
until it snaps shut. NEVER FORCE THE DOOR SHUT.
This could result in serious damage. If the door will
not close easily, check that the battery is placed
properly in the compartment and is not upside down.
Low Battery Indicator
An indicator will sound when the battery’s voltage is
low. You have approximately 15* minutes to replace
the battery. An indicator will sound just before the
battery stops working.
* Actual time between low battery indicator and
shutdown will vary depending on environmental
noise level and battery brand.
