General warnings and precautions for handling
batteries and the battery charger
Batteries
Do not recharge disposable batteries.•
When using disposable batteries, only use P675 zinc air •
batteries. Other types may not have suffi cient energy to allow
your processor to operate for a long time. Cochlear does not
recommend the use of silver oxide or alkaline batteries.
Change both disposable batteries at the same time. It only takes •
one low or empty battery to stop your processor from working.
Do not mix brands or battery types (e.g. zinc air with silver oxide). •
Remove disposable batteries from your processor when they •
are empty, or when storing the battery holder or processor for a
period of time. Empty batteries may leak corrosive fl uids and cause
damage if left inside the battery module for extended periods.
If a battery has leaked fl uid, do not allow the fl uid or liquid to •
come into contact with skin or eyes. If contact is made, wash with
a lot of water and seek medical attention. It is always a good idea
to wash your hands after you have handled batteries.
Store batteries separately to avoid them from shorting each other.•
Batteries can be harmful if chewed or swallowed. If chewed •
or swallowed, seek prompt medical attention at the nearest
emergency centre or Poisons Information Centre.
Make sure that batteries are kept out of reach of young children. •
Do not let children replace batteries without adult supervision.
Carry spare batteries in a closed plastic bag. Batteries could short •
circuit and discharge if they come into contact with each other or
any metallic objects (e.g. coins, hair clips, etc.).
Do not expose batteries to heat (e.g. never leave batteries in •
sunlight, behind a window or in a car).
Store batteries in a cool dry place.•
Never immerse batteries in water. •
Do not deform batteries. •
