1. Use the nail grip on the battery door.
2. Open the battery door gently and remove
the old battery.
3. Remove the tab from the new battery.
4. Line up the battery’s “+” sign (flat side of the
battery) with the “+” on the battery door.
5. Close the battery door.

prevent the accidental ingestion of batteries:

Operation
Insert a battery and
completely close the
battery door.
To turn OFF:
Open the battery door until
the battery is no longer touching
the battery contacts.
Some hearing instruments are programmed to
have a Power-On delay. Your hearing professional
will place a check in the box below if your hearing
instruments have this feature.
The Power-On delay means that your instruments
will take several seconds to power up once they
have been turned on. This feature allows you to
get the hearing instruments in your ear before they
start to amplify sound. You may hear a tone series
indicating that your device is fully powered on.
