The battery
Battery type
The recommended battery type for your Flash hearing
aid is:
Zinc Air battery type 10
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.
9
Inserting the battery
Before inserting a new battery in
your hearing aid, remember to re-
move the adhesive tab. Do not use
batteries on which there is a sticky
residue from the tab or other un-
wanted substance.
10
Use the nail grip to gently swing
the battery drawer outwards.
When opening the battery
drawer, be careful not to force it
beyond the upright position.
Place the battery in the drawer
so that the small plus (+) sign on
the battery is facing in the direc-
tion indicated by the small plus
(+) sign printed on the round
battery holder. If the battery
drawer does not close easily, the
battery is incorrectly inserted.
Always place the battery in the
actual battery drawer as illus-
trated and not in the open
space inside the hearing aid.
