Care for your battery charger

Every day
Check that your battery charger is clean. If you
notice any dust or dirt:
Unplug the power adaptor and remove any
1
battery modules.
2 Hold the battery charger upside down and tap
it gently to remove any dirt from the battery
charger sockets. Carefully blowing on the
battery charger sockets may also help remove
dirt.
Wipe the battery charger sockets with a soft
3
dry cloth.
Cycle batteries in different sockets when
recharging to wear the sockets evenly.
If it gets wet
If the battery charger ever gets splashed with
liquid, carefully shake out the liquid and dry the
battery charger for 24 hours. Do not use the
battery charger until it is dry.
Using Share the Experience

Actuator unit onto the test rod using the tilt
technique.
Place the Sound Processing unit on the ear.

Hold the rod against the skull bone behind an
ear. Plug both ears and listen.
Wear an Earhook+ or Earhook 2+
The Earhook+ or Earhook 2+ is used when wearing
the sound processor in the under-the-ear (UTE)
position. Both are available in different sizes.
