• Remove your sound processor and consult your cochlear
implant professional if uncomfortable sounds are heard
or in case of discomfort, pain or skin irritation.
• Do not dispose of the M Waterproof Battery in fire, as it
may explode.
• To prevent injury or burns, do not allow metal objects, such
as keys or coins, to contact or short circuit the battery
terminals. The M Waterproof Battery may present risk of
fire or chemical burn if mistreated. Do not disassemble.
Do not heat above 100˚C/212˚F or incinerate.

dispose of it in accordance with local regulations,
asdetailed in the “Disposal” section of this document.
• Do not allow leaking battery fluid to come into contact
with skin, mouth, or eyes.
• Do not expose the M Waterproof Battery to heat
(e.g.,do not store in direct sunlight or in a hot car).
• Carry the M Waterproof Battery in the carrying case
provided or in a sealed plastic bag. The M Waterproof
Battery can short circuit if it comes into contact with
metallic objects such as coins or keys.
• High levels of static electricity may damage electronic
components of your sound processor or implant. Care
should be taken to avoid exposure of the system to
static electricity.
• The M Waterproof Battery O-Ring should be inspected
prior to each use and will need to be changed
periodically. If damage to the O-Ring is observed or
suspected, replace prior to resuming use. Do not continue
use of the M Waterproof Battery if it is damaged. Doing
so may void the warranty and may compromise system
performance. If used improperly or damaged, you may
be liable for the repair cost of the product. This includes,
but is not limited to, water or particulate matter damage.
• When the M Waterproof Battery is moved from a hot
environment (e.g., a sauna or whirlpool) to a colder
environment (e.g., a pool), condensation may form
inside the case. If condensation occurs, remove the
processor and place in a drying system overnight to

ensure proper drying of the sound processor. Wipe
the battery case with a soft, lint-free cloth and air
dryovernight.
• If water or particle ingress is observed, cease use of
the M Waterproof Battery immediately, remove the
processor from the enclosure and place in a drying
system overnight to ensure proper drying of the sound
processor. Wipe the battery case with a soft, lint-free
cloth and air dry overnight.
• Following exposure to particulate matter, such as sand
or dirt, clean the outside of the case with water and a
dry cloth prior to opening.
• The Waterproof Battery and O-Ring should be rinsed
and dried following submersion in salt or chlorine
treated water.
• Do NOT store the M Waterproof Battery in direct sunlight
or inside a vehicle during extremely hot or cold weather.
The O-Ring should also not be left in direct sunlight. To
prevent excessive sun exposure, cover the M Waterproof
Battery and O-Ring with a towel.
• When sunbathing or after water use, please remove
the sound processor from the M Waterproof Battery or
cover the M Waterproof Battery and sound processor
to shade it from direct sunlight and prevent excessive
temperatures.
• Do not open or close the M Waterproof Battery while
ina water environment.

• Cables are not intended to be removed or replaced
while the M Waterproof Battery is submerged. If the
cable accidentally detaches during water use, remove
the M Waterproof Battery from the water and shake
excess water from the case prior to reconnecting the
cable. Wipe the battery case with a soft, lint-free cloth
and air dry overnight.
• To prevent damage to accessories compatible with
the sound processor (e.g., Listening Check, Phonak
Roger devices, Phonak RemoteControl), it is important
to cease use prior to engaging in activities in or
near water. Once in a dry environment, the recipient
may resume use of the accessories with the sound
processor in the M Waterproof Battery.
• To avoid an increased risk of strangulation, do not use
cables longer than 81cm (32 inches) for young children.
• Although electromagnetic emissions of the M
Waterproof Battery have been confirmed within safe
limits, some other devices could be sensitive to such
emissions. If you notice other devices do not behave
as expected when your M Waterproof Battery is nearby,
separate the devices.
• In the event that you experience any issues with your
product, please contact your cochlear implant profes-
sional or the manufacturer. Do not attempt to service
or modify the Naída CI M, Sky CI M, or its accessories.
Doing so may compromise system performance and
will void the manufacturer’s warranty. Products should
be serviced only at Advanced Bionics and damaged
products should be returned to Advanced Bionics.
