Tips
• To maximise battery life, switch off the sound
processor when it is not in use.
• Battery life decreases as soon as the battery is
exposed to air (when the plastic strip is removed)
so be sure to only remove the plastic strip
directly prior to use.
• Battery life depends on daily use, volume levels,
wireless streaming, sound environment, program
setting, and battery strength.
• If a battery leaks, replace it immediately.

Caution: Batteries can be harmful if
swallowed. Be sure to keep your batteries
out of reach of small children and household
pets. In the event a battery is accidentally
swallowed, seek immediate medical attention
at the nearest emergency centre.
Attach the Safety line
To use the Safety line, simply attach it to the
sound processor and clip it on to your shirt or
jacket.
Cochlear recommends connecting the Safety
line when engaging in physical activities. Children

General care

Your sound processor is a delicate electronic
device. Follow these guidelines to keep it in proper
working order:
• Turn off and store the sound processor free from
dust and dirt.
• Remove the battery when storing the sound
processor for long periods.
• Avoid exposing your sound processor to extreme
temperatures.
• Remove your sound processor before applying
hair conditioners, mosquito repellent or similar
products.
• Secure your sound processor with a Safety
line during physical activities. If the physical
activity involves contact, Cochlear recommends
removing your sound processor.
• Your sound processor is not waterproof. Do not
use it when swimming and avoid exposing it to
heavy rain
If the sound processor becomes very wet:
1. Immediately open the battery door and remove
the battery.
2. Put your sound processor in a container with
drying capsules such as a Dri-Aid Kit. Leave it to
dry out overnight. Drying kits are available from
most hearing care professionals.
