Magnets
It is important for your headpiece to have the correct
magnet strength and orientation to avoid discomfort or
retention issues. Contact your cochlear implant professional
if there are any concerns regarding magnet retention.
If deemed appropriate, your cochlear implant professional
may replace the headpiece magnet with a stronger or
weaker magnet or adjust magnet orientation. If needed,
you may use off-the-shelf solutions to improve retention.
For use of Slim HP AquaMic in water
If a swim cap, headband, or other device used in water
environments is placed over the headpiece microphone,
some degradation in sound quality may be perceived. If
the headpiece is worn following submersion in water, sound
quality may be affected. Dry the headpiece fully to restore
typical system sound quality. It is recommended that you
replace your headpiece after water use with a dry headpiece
to ensure restoration of typical system sound quality.
