3. Power
3.1 Battery type
The Baha 6 Max Sound Processor uses a
312 size type hearing aid battery (1.45 Volt
zinc air, non-rechargeable). Batteries
should be replaced as needed, just as
you would with many other electronic
devices. Battery life will vary with e.g. daily
use, volume levels, wireless streaming,
sound environment, program setting, and
battery strength.
3.2 Low battery indication
If activated, the visual and audio signals
will alert you when there is approximately
one hour of battery power remaining
(at this time you may experience lower
amplification). If the battery runs down
completely, the sound processor will stop
working.

to keep your batteries out of reach of
small children and other recipients in

door is properly closed. In the event

immediate medical attention at the
nearest emergency centre.
