Protecting your processor from dust and water
damage
To protect your processor from dust and water damage, it is important
that you follow the guidance provided in this section.
When using a rechargeable battery module, your processor has a dust
and water damage protection rating of IP57. This protects the processor
against the following:
Penetration of solid foreign objects greater than or equal to 1.0 •
mm diameter.
Failure from dust penetration.•
Failure from temporary immersion in water. •
When using the standard battery module (disposable batteries), your
processor will have a protection rating of IP44. This protects the
processor against the following:
Penetration of solid foreign objects greater than or equal to 1.0 •
mm diameter.
Failure from splashing water.•
When an audio accessory is attached, your processor is not protected
from dust and water damage.
To protect your processor from dust or water damage:
Ensure that microphone protectors are in place at all times.•
Ensure that the accessory socket cover is properly closed when you •
are not using an audio accessory.
Ensure that the coil cable plug seal is not damaged and that the •
coil cable plug is properly inserted into the processor coil cable
socket.
Always keep the coil cable plugged into the processor to prevent •
moisture getting into the coil cable socket. It is also important that
you keep the coil cable plugged into the coil.
If the battery contacts on the battery module become loose, •
contact your clinician as the connector between the processing
unit and the battery module could be broken.
