Warnings
If your sound processor becomes unusually warm,
remove it immediately and seek advice from your
clinician. Parents/caregivers: if your recipient indicates
discomfort, check if their sound processor is unusually
warm.
Small parts (e.g. coil magnets) may be a choking
hazard.
If the coil magnet is too strong or is in contact with the
skin, pressure sores may develop at the coil site. If this
happens, or if you experience any discomfort in this
area, contact your clinician.
Do not apply continued pressure to the coil when in
contact with the skin (e.g. sleeping while lying on coil,
or using tight fitting headwear).
Store spare coil magnets safely and away from cards
that may have a magnetic strip (e.g. credit cards, bus
tickets, etc).
No modification of this equipment is allowed.
Use only as intended.
Report unexpected problems to your clinician.
Precautions
Always use Aqua+ with the blue Aqua+ coil, never with
your usual coil.
When connecting the coil cable, always push the plug
straight in; do not screw or twist the plug.
Where possible, avoid pressing the processor buttons
with your fingernail as this can damage Aqua+.
If Aqua+ appears damaged or worn, replace it with
a new one.
If your sound processor does get wet, dry it with a soft
dry cloth and place it in your dry aid kit for at least
eight hours.
