Disposal Guidelines

Hearing instrument
Consult your dispenser where you purchased your hearing aid for advice on how to dispose of your
hearing instrument. Make sure that the instrument is disposed of properly, so the waste will undergo
necessary treatment, recovery and recycling and thus prevent potential negative effects on the
environment and human health.
Battery disposal
For battery disposal, follow the battery disposal guidance based on the current United States federal
laws and regulations. Many states have regulations in place requiring some form of battery recycling.
The regulations of some states may require recycling for certain types of batteries different than other
states.
If you are using batteries outside the United States, other nations may regulate waste based on
different criteria. Confirm the status of batteries in the nation where disposal occurs.
A nickel metal hydride battery that is recyclable powers the product you have
purchased. Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY for information on how to recycle this
battery.
