The battery

Battery type

The recommended battery type for your Flash hearing

aid is:

Zinc Air battery type 13

To obtain replacement batteries, please consult your

hearing care professional. Please note the expiry date

and the recommendations regarding disposal of used

batteries on the battery pack. To ensure proper battery

function, do not use batteries past the expiry date. Be-

cause they are Zinc Air type batteries, they need air to

work. Therefore, do not remove the adhesive tab until

just before inserting the battery in the hearing aid.

Once the tab has been removed, the battery will start

functioning after a few seconds. The battery life will

depend on a number of factors, such as the setting of

your hearing aid, how many hours you use it daily and

the listening environments in which you use it.

Inserting the battery

Before inserting a new battery in your

hearing aid, remember to remove the

adhesive tab. Do not use batteries on

which there is a sticky residue from the

tab or other unwanted substance.

Push the nail grip downwards to

swing open the battery drawer. The

nail grip is located on the opposite

side of the on/off switch at the bot-

tom of the hearing aid.

The plus (+) sign of the battery must face upwards. If

the battery drawer does not close easily, the battery is

incorrectly inserted.

Changing the battery

If you hear four rapid beep-tones while wearing your

hearing aid, it is an indication that the battery is nearly

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 var-

ies from one case to another. We recommend that you

always have a spare battery with you.

For adjustment of the beep-tone level or disabling of

the function, please consult your hearing care profes-

sional.

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.

The hearing aid can be provided

with a battery drawer lock, if re-

quired. This is a particularly good

idea if the hearing aid is worn by a

child. A special tool for opening the

lock will be included when order-

ing the lock (see the drawing).

You open the lock by push-

ing it to the right and then

downward with the tool in

one movement as illustrat-

ed.
