Using Neptune Headpieces
Two headpieces are available for use with your Neptune sound processor.
1.
The Universal Headpiece (UHP)
2.
The AquaMic
The Universal Headpiece
The UHP is designed for use with the Neptune processor during daily activities with
the exception of swimming and bathing.
The AquaMic
The AquaMic is designed for use during swimming and bathing and carries an IP68
rating for water and particulate matter (e.g., dust, sand) resistance. The AquaMic is
not intended for use during diving or repeated submersion at depths greater than
three meters (9 feet, 10 inches).
When using the AquaMic underwater, sound may be distorted; however, following
submersion or heavy water spray, sound quality should return to acceptable levels
after fully drying the headpiece. For this reason, it is recommended that you replace
your AquaMic after water use with a dry headpiece to ensure restoration of typical
system sound quality. For more information, refer to 'The AquaMic' section of the
User Guide or the AquaMic 'Instructions for Use.'
Replacing Headpiece Cables
Headpiece cables are available in a variety of colors and lengths to suit your
personal wearing preferences. Before you can use your Neptune sound processor,
you must attach the cable to the headpiece and sound processor. You should
inspect your cable on a regular basis to ensure it is in good condition. If it appears
damaged, you should replace it with a new cable.
Cables are not intended to be removed or replaced while the sound processor
is under water. If the cable accidentally detaches during water use, remove the
sound processor from the water and shake excess water from the sound processor
prior to re-connecting the cable.
Place the sound processor and headpiece with cable detached in the Zephyr by Dry
& Store® overnight to ensure proper drying of the Neptune system components.
Due to increased risk of strangulation and/or underwater entanglement, do not
use cables longer than 81cm (32 inches) with young children.
