Avoid getting sand or dirt into any part of the system. If this happens:
1.
Shake out the sand or dirt as much as possible.
2.
Wipe your processor with a damp cloth.
3.
Place the processor in a dry aid kit.
Once your processor is dry, check if it is working. If your processor is
not working, return it to your clinician for service. Cochlear cannot
guarantee that they will be able to repair any water-damaged part.
Cleaning your processor parts
Regular cleaning of your processor parts prevents dirt from building up
and degrading the sound quality. You can clean your processor parts as
follows:
•
Regularly check the contacts between the processing unit and the
battery module to ensure they are clean. If the contacts are dirty,
you can gently tap or blow on them to remove any dirt.
•
If the battery module is dirty, wipe it with a soft dry cloth. Keep
the battery module dry and free from moisture.
•
If the earhook is dirty, clean it with a soft dry cloth. You do not
need to remove the earhook from the processing unit when
cleaning it. If you remove the earhook too often, it may become
loose.
•
Clean the coil cable with a dry cloth.
•
Clean sound processor covers and the Snugfit with a soft dry cloth.
•
If audio accessories are dirty, clean them with a soft dry cloth. You
can blow on the processor accessory socket to remove any dust.
