Now place the new battery in the drawer as shown.
Close the drawer. If it doesn't close easily, the bat-
tery is not placed correctly.
If you are not using the hearing aid for a few days,
remove the battery.
NOTE
Avoid dropping your hearing aid - hold the hearing aid above a soft surface
while changing the battery.
Tamper-resistant battery drawer
If the hearing aid is going to be used by a child or a mentally disabled per-
son, you can ask your hearing care professional to provide it with a tamper-
resistant battery drawer.
To open battery drawer, use the special tool you've
received, and do as illustrated.
NOTE
This option is not available if your hearing aids use silver-zinc rechargeable
batteries.
The silver-zinc battery
Use a
type 312 silver-zinc
battery for your hearing aid.
