processor regularly with a Sound processor
cleaning wipe, and clean the snap with a small
sound processor brush (both provided in the
Aftercare Kit).

always cover your Baha sound processor to
avoid damaging the microphone or the casing.
Alternatively, remove it entirely.
9. To avoid feedback (whistling), don’t let
objects come too close to your Baha sound
processor (e.g. a hat, hairbrush, phone, glasses etc.).
10. To store your Baha sound processor safely
after use, remove the battery and place the sound
processor in its case.
11. If you need an MRI scan, it is crucial to
remove the sound processor beforehand. The
implant and abutment can remain in place.*
12. When travelling, remove your Baha sound
processor when going through security screening
to avoid setting off metal detectors in places such
as airports. An MRI/Security control instructions
card is included with your sound processor, which
provides information for airport personnel.
