Install the battery correctly

Push back the raised edge of the battery compartment. Do not use brute force to pry it open. Be sure to install the battery matching the model of the hearing aid. After tearing off the sealed label, it needs to stand for one or two minutes (5 minutes is recommended in winter), let the zinc air battery contact with the air for a long time to discharge, and then install the labeled side corresponding to the side with “+” in the battery compartment.

Do not tear the sealing label casually

Once the label is torn, it will start to consume power. Even if it is pasted again, the battery life will not be prolonged. Therefore, do not tear off the battery label unless you want to use it immediately.

When the battery runs out of power, please take it out immediately

The exhausted battery will be in the state of excessive discharge in the hearing aid, which is easy to cause the battery leakage or excessive expansion, so it must be taken out immediately.

Do not use the hearing aid for a long time, please remove the battery

When it is not used for a long time, the battery must be taken out because the air will enter into the battery and gradually affect the battery performance, or even cause leakage.

Please open the battery compartment every night when the hearing aid is not used

Open the battery compartment every night when not in use. Put the battery and hearing aid into the drying box when it is wet in summer or rainy season; do not put the battery into the drying box when it is dry to avoid excessive drying.

Battery test

Do not test in the morning, because the battery voltage will recover after one night, but it can only last for a short time.

The battery is stored in a cool and dry place

Please keep it in a cool and dry place. High temperature, high humidity and direct sunlight are harmful to the battery, but it is not necessary to put the battery in the refrigerator.
