Battery Size
Your hearing instruments use a size 13 or 675 battery�
Your battery package may have an orange mark
indicating battery size 13 or blue mark indicating
battery size 675�
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�

BATTERIES
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�
6
Locking the Battery Compartment
Your BTE has a tamper
resistant, locking battery
compartment� The lock switch
is located on the bottom of
the battery door� Locking
the battery compartment
is not necessary for normal
operation�
To lock the door, use an
appropriate tool to slide the
recessed switch to the left until
it “clicks” and the colored
mark is visible�

Battery Caution
Because batteries can vary in performance, your
hearing professional is your best source for lifespan
estimates and verification that you are using the
proper size and type�
To help prevent the accidental ingestion of batteries,
keep them out of the reach of children and pets�
Always check your medication before ingesting –
batteries have been mistaken for pills�
Never put batteries in your mouth for any reason, as
they can easily be unintentionally swallowed�
Dispose of used batteries immediately, using
the proper waste or recycling receptacle�
WARNING:
HEARING INSTRUMENT BATTERIES ARE
DANGEROUS IF SWALLOWED.

and forefinger on the outer side near the tubing�
Gently insert the canal tip into your ear canal�
Then gently press the earmold
into place with your finger�
Carefully place the instrument
over the top of the ear until it
rests securely in place�
To remove, take the instrument
from behind your ear and
gently pull the earmold
outward� Pulling down on
