Charging your hearing aids
We recommend that you fully charge your hearing aids before using them. This is just a precaution to make sure
that you don't run out of power unexpectedly. To learn how to charge your hearing aids, please consult the user
guide for your hearing aid charger.
Battery warnings
WARNING:
•Rechargeable hearing aids contain Li-Ion batteries. Exposure or ingestion can be seriously harmful.
•Never put your rechargeable hearing aid in your mouth. Keep your rechargeable hearing aid away
from pets, children and people with cognitive, intellectual or mental health challenges.
•If a Li-Ion battery or a rechargeable hearing aid is swallowed, seek immediate medical attention.
•If the outer casing of your rechargeable hearing aid is broken, the rechargeable batteries inside may
leak. In this case, do not attempt to use the hearing aid – contact your hearing care professional.
•Battery leakage can cause chemical burns. If you get exposed to battery leakage material, rinse
immediately with warm water. If you get chemical burns, redness or skin irritation from battery leakage,
seek medical attention.
•Batteries are harmful for the environment. Therefore, never try to burn them – dispose of your used
rechargeable hearing aids according to your country’s regulations or return them to your hearing care
professional.
Charging your hearing aids 9
•For safety reasons, use only the charger provided with your hearing aid.
•When traveling, consult your airline about any rules for transportation of your hearing aid and charger.

When the batteries are low on power, the volume in your hearing aids will momentarily reduce and a melody will
play every 15minutes until there is no more power - then your hearing aids will turn off.
