3. Air Activation

Rayovac hearing aid batteries are zinc-air batteries, which means they are activated by air. Once you remove the protective tab, air enters the battery and activates it. For optimal performance, allow the battery to air activate for approximately 1 minute before inserting it into your hearing aid.

4. Inserting into Hearing Aid

1. Open the battery compartment of your hearing aid.
2. Insert the activated battery with the flat, positive (+) side facing up, or as indicated by your hearing aid manufacturer's instructions.
3. Close the battery compartment securely. Your hearing aid should now power on.

Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your Rayovac hearing aid batteries, consider the following common solutions:

• Hearing Aid Not Powering On:
  • Ensure the protective tab has been completely removed from the battery.
  • Verify the battery is inserted correctly into the hearing aid compartment, with the correct polarity.
  • Allow 1 minute for air activation after removing the tab before insertion.
• Short Battery Life:
  • Ensure the battery tab was removed just prior to use, not significantly in advance.
  • Check the expiration date on the battery package.
  • Environmental factors like humidity and temperature can affect battery life.
  • High-drain usage (e.g., continuous streaming) will naturally reduce battery life.
• Difficulty Removing Batteries from Package:
  • Ensure the lock dial on the back of the package is disengaged to allow the batteries to rotate freely to the front-facing door.
  • The package features a perforated rounded edge, allowing the dial to be completely removed for added convenience if preferred.

If problems persist, consult your hearing aid professional or contact Rayovac customer support.
