Aqua+ Recipient Kit
The Cochlear™ Nucleus® Aqua+ is a re-usable
sealable sleeve that, when used with the Aqua+ coil,
keeps your sound processor dry during use in or around
water (e.g. when swimming, surfing, or just having fun
splashing around). It has a built-in ear hook and is worn
behind the ear with your sound processor sealed inside.
Please read instructions carefully. In order to receive
the intended benefits, the device must be used in
accordance with these instructions. Improper use may
result in damage to the sound processor.

The Cochlear™ Nucleus® Aqua+ is intended for use
by recipients 12 months or older using the CP810,
CP910, and CP920 sound processors with rechargeable
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. For young children or
individuals who cannot provide feedback, the Aqua+
should be used under close supervision.
You may notice a difference in sound quality when
using the Aqua+.
You must use rechargeable batteries for your sound
processor to work inside Aqua+. Zinc air batteries
will not work as they need air and there is no air inside
Aqua+ when it’s sealed.
The Cochlear™ Nucleus® Aqua+ Coil (with
integrated coil cable) is used in place of your usual
coil and coil cable while your sound processor is inside
your Aqua+. It has a special plug that creates a seal
when connected to your sound processor’s coil socket
through the coil plug hole in Aqua+. As with your usual
coil, a coil magnet screws into the Aqua+ coil and holds
it against your implant.
The magnet strength and placement when used with
Aqua+ should be the same as your standard coil.
The Cochlear™ Nucleus® Mic Lock-Stirrup is a
retention option to hold Aqua+ more securely behind
your ear. The stirrup connects to the base of Aqua+ and
the Mic Lock tube (when cut to size) passes under the
ear lobe and connects to the Aqua+ earhook.
The Cochlear™ 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+ if they are suitable for use in or around water.
Testing shows Aqua+ can be used for 2 hours and at
depths of up to 3 metres.
Testing shows Aqua+ can be re-used up to 50 times,
but this may vary depending on your particular use of
it.

You don’t have to attach the Aqua+ earhook
to your sound processor.
Instructions for
Cochlear™ Nucleus® Aqua+
Before you get wet…
1Carefully remove your usual earhook and
unplug your usual coil from the sound processor
(see your sound processor’s user guide for
specific instructions).
Don‘t forget you must be using rechargeable
batteries for your sound processor to work
inside Aqua+.
4
3Plug the blue Aqua+ coil (with magnet) straight
into your sound processor through the hole in
Aqua+. Do not twist. The coil plug should feel
securely connected.
4Insert the plug into the base of Aqua+.
To make a good seal, push the plug in as far
as it will go (like a cork).
5
5If you’re worried about losing Aqua+
(e.g. in the surf), use the safety line
to secure Aqua+ to your clothing.
6If you’re concerned about keeping Aqua+
on your ear, attach a Mic Lock-Stirrup
(or another retention aid).
See 11 for instructions on cutting
Mic Lock-Stirrup to fit your ear.

Notes on retention
For young children, the sound processor with Aqua+
may be too bulky or heavy for successful retention
without retention aids.
A swimcap or goggles do not interfere with the Aqua+
and can be used as retention aids. This can be useful for
young children or others who may have difficulty with
retention of the Aqua+.
Use of additional retention aids such as a swimcap
may reduce the transmission of sound to the sound
processor’s microphone.

3Open Aqua+ and remove your sound processor.
After getting wet…
Care and storage
1Rinse Aqua+ with clean water
and dry with a soft cloth.
2Unplug the blue Aqua+ coil.
Pull the plug straight out; do not twist.
8
4Re-attach your usual coil and earhook.
5Place Aqua+ and the blue Aqua+ coil in your
dry aid kit overnight.
6Once they’re thoroughly dry, store Aqua+,
the blue Aqua+ coil and any accessories in
