Hearing Aid Battery Care

• Store hearing aid batteries at room temperature; cold or heat may reduce battery life.
• Keep the tab on hearing aid batteries (zinc air) until you are ready to use them.
• Always carry extra batteries with you. They will stay protected if you leave them in the pack or place them in a battery holder.
• Do not mix loose batteries with metal objects like keys or coins; this may short circuit the batteries.
• Keep all hearing aid batteries away from small children.
• Never change hearing aid batteries in front of children or hold the battery between your teeth. Children will imitate adults and attempt to mimic this behavior.
• If a battery is swallowed, call your family physician and the National Button Battery Ingestion Hot Line: (202) 625-3333.
