Note
If your sound processor is subject
to extreme conditions, you should
clean and replace parts more often
to keep it working at its best.
Replace microphone protectors
Replace your microphone protectors every three months, whenever they look dirty
or whenever you notice any loss in sound quality. Always replace both protectors
at the same time.
To remove microphone protectors:
Remove the protective cap from
the Cochlear Nucleus Microphone
Protector Removal Tool.
Push the tip of the removal tool
under the edge of the microphone
protector. Do not push the tool into
the middle of the protector as you
might damage the microphone.
Carefully lift out the microphone
protector and discard.
