The Cochlear™Aqua+ for Kanso™is a re-usable sealable
cover that keeps your Cochlear™Kanso Sound Processor
(model number: CP950) dry during use in or around water
(e.g. when swimming, surfing, or just having fun splashing
around). It is worn on your implant with your sound processor
sealed inside.
The Aqua+ is intended for use by recipients using the Kanso
Sound Processor with specific disposable batteries. It should
only be used by recipients who can either remove the sound
processor themselves if it’s causing discomfort or who can
indicate any discomfort to their parent or caregiver.
The Cochlear Headband is a retention option that holds
Aqua+ more securely on your head.
The Nucleus®Safety Line is a retention option to help
prevent accidental loss of your Aqua+ by securing it to your
clothing with a snap-lock clip.
Remotes and wireless accessories can be used with Aqua+,
however they should be protected from water and kept dry.
Testing shows Aqua+ can be used at depths of up to 3 metres
for up to 2 hours.
Testing shows Aqua+ can be re-used up to 50 times, but this
may vary depending on your particular use of it.
There have been no reported undesirable side effects from
using Aqua+.

Battery use with Aqua+
For everyday use, most Kanso Sound Processor users will
achieve at least 16 hours battery life with zinc air batteries.
But you cannot use zinc air batteries with Aqua+ as they need
air and there is insufficient air inside Aqua+ when it’s sealed.
You must use other disposable batteries for your Kanso
Sound Processor to work inside Aqua+. You can use
alkaline, nickel metal hydride or silver oxide* batteries.

* (USA) Silver oxide batteries are contraindicated by the FDA.
NOTE
Battery life depends on your implant type, the thickness of skin
over your implant, system settings and hearing situations. It can
also vary between battery manufacturers.
If you use a Cochlear Nucleus CR230 Remote Assistant, you

3. Open the Aqua+ housing.
Put your fingers under the top cover’s side tabs and press
your thumbs on the raised sides of the base.
CAUTION
Don’t damage the soft top cover with your fingernails.
TIP
You can gently bend the Aqua+ side tabs towards you,
and press alternately on the left then right side until the
base pops out.
4. Check both halves for damage (e.g. scratches, tears) or
contamination (e.g. sand, hair, sunscreen).
If it is damaged, use a new Aqua+.

Anything that affects the seal may cause water to leak in
and damage your sound processor.

5. Place your sound processor button side up in the Aqua+
base unit.
TIPS
• Your Aqua+ is shaped so your processor only fits in
one way.
• If you use a Cochlear SoftWear™ pad, you can leave it
on the processor.
6. Put the Aqua+ top cover on the base unit (line up the
button shape on the top cover with the button on your
sound processor).
TIP
Make sure you don’t trap too much air in the top cover.
This may affect sound quality and comfort.

7. Turn the Aqua+ over and firmly press around the edges
until the base is flush with the top cover.
CAUTION

8. If you’re worried about losing Aqua+ (e.g. in the surf), use
the Safety Line to attach it to your clothing.
See Safety Line instructions on page 10.
