Activa remote error code 006

We are abroad in Majorca and my husband's DBS Activa remote is showing code 006 and we can't use . This is devastating because the only way my husband can walk distances is by switching it off. It's also weekend and we can't phone our PD nurse and nobody in the hospital can help. I also phoned Medtronic but they couldn't give me technical advice and told me to phone the Medtronic rep at the hospial who also wasnt there because it was weekend. There really should be an emergency phone number for this kind of emergency. Any one any advice?
