Important

Hearing aids are medical devices. Use only the size and type your audiologist or manufacturer specifies. Zinc-air size codes do not fit every aid, and they are not substitutes for sealed rechargeable systems. Keep button and zinc-air cells away from children and pets; swallowed cells are a medical emergency. This page is a size guide — not a fitting or clinical recommendation.
