Battery Warning!

Batteries can be harmful if swallowed. If you think a battery has been swallowed, get medical advice immediately. Do not heat or attempt to recharge batteries. Keep batteries out of the reach of children.

Do not put used batteries in the bin – return them to the Battery Issuing Centre or recycle them with your other batteries. For information about your hearing aid and batteries look in your brown Hearing Aid Record Book.

• Remember to take your brown Hearing Aid Record Book and used batteries with you when you go for new batteries – if you lose your book or have any problem getting batteries contact us.
