The battery
Battery type
The recommended battery type for your AIKIA
hearing aid is:
Zinc Air battery type 312
To obtain replacement batteries, please consult
your hearing care professional. Please note the ex-
piry date and the recommendations regarding dis-
posal of used batteries on the battery pack. To en-
sure proper battery function, do not use batteries
past the expiry date. Because they are Zinc Air type
batteries, they need air to work. Therefore, do not
remove the adhesive tab until just before inserting
the battery in the hearing aid. Once the tab has
been removed, the battery will start functioning
after a few seconds. The battery life will depend on
a number of factors, such as the setting of your
hearing aid, how many hours you use it daily and
the listening environments in which you use it.
