Always use batteries recommended by your hearing
care professional. Batteries of low quality may leak
and cause bodily harm. An empty battery should be
removed as soon as possible.
Never attempt to recharge non-rechargeable
batteries. They may explode and cause serious
injury. Never dispose of batteries by burning them.

Help protect the environment by not disposing of
your RC-N batteries with your unsorted household

your hearing care professional for disposal.
The RC-N uses digital inductive signals to transmit
commands to the hearing aids. Although extremely
unlikely, concerns have been raised that this signal
could possibly interfere with medical devices such
as pacemakers. As an additional precaution, we
advise pacemaker recipients not to carry and use the
RC-N in a breast pocket or around the neck.
