Battery Indicators
An indicator will sound when the battery voltage is
low. You have approximately 5 minutes* to replace the
battery. An indicator will sound just before the battery
stops working.
* Actual time between low battery indicator and shut
down will vary depending on environmental noise levels
and brand of battery used.
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.
• Because of their size, it’s a good idea to change and
replace batteries above a table or desk to reduce
the risk of dropping the instrument or battery.
• Dispose of used batteries immediately in the proper
waste or recycling container.
• Because batteries can 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.
