The Halo Accessory is a loss prevention device for your
sound processor. It provides users of the Off-the Ear (OTE)
Kanso 2 Sound Processor with improved security against
dropping the device. Hairclips will be required to use with the
Halo Accessory.
Note
There is an option to use double-loop safety lines to attach
hairclips to the Halo Accessory after removing the rings.
The Halo Accessory should 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.
