charging the batteries
The Amigo T5 comes with two AAA rechargeable NiMH silver-sleeved batteries,
which must be charged for 14 hours before being used for the first time. You can
replace the batteries with any of the following:
•
Special “silver-sleeved” rechargeable batteries
Only available through your Hearing Care Professional, these are the only batteries
that can be recharged inside the Amigo T5.
•
Standard, rechargeable NiMH batteries
Although these cannot be recharged inside the Amigo T5, they can be removed for
charging in an external charger purchased from an electronics store.
•
Standard, non-rechargeable alkaline batteries
Can be used in an emergency, i.e. if you don’t have time to charge your rechargeable
batteries. But do remember that alkaline batteries must never be recharged.
Note: Always dispose of old batteries in approved battery disposal bins since it may be
illegal to dispose of them in ordinary bins. For more information please consult your
Hearing Care Professional.
