be identified by the colour orange.

model.
Remove the tab on your batteries only when you are ready to use
them.
The positive (+) side of the batteries is always the smooth side.
Always keep spare batteries with you.
Typical battery life is up to 400 hours, but will vary depending on ambient
sound levels and environmental conditions such as humidity.
Please note: Once a Zinc-Air battery tab has been removed, battery life will not
typically exceed 45 days. The battery will dry out and no longer be effective.
¡

minutes. When the battery reaches low you will hear a series of 6
double beeps, this will be followed by the device shutting down.
If the battery fails during use and is not replaced, your protection will
not be compromised, but the ambient awareness will deteriorate.
