42 NUCLEUS 7 SOUND PROCESSOR USER GUIDE
Water, sand and dirt
Your processor is resistant to water, sand and dust.
However, it is still a precision electronic device so you
should take the following precautions.
If your processor ever gets wet, dry
it with a soft cloth.
Then remove the battery module
(and disposable batteries if used),
dry them and the contacts with a
soft cloth, and replace them.
Replace the microphone protectors
and place your processor in the dry
aid kit provided by Cochlear for 8
hours.
See Batteries on page 4.
See Change microphone cover on
page 44.
If sand or dirt ever enter the
processor, shake the components
carefully to remove it.
