Fancy a swim?

Go ahead and jump in!

With the weather warming up, you might be looking forward to a cooling dip. In which case, Cochlear’s Nucleus® 8, Kanso® 2 and Kanso 3 sound processors have got you covered.

Not only are they completely dust-tight, these devices are also IP68 waterproofed.* That means they can withstand immersion in water without the need for an additional accessory.

So if you are looking forward to a swim this summer, go right ahead. There’s no need to hit the pause button!

Embrace the moment … at a moment’s notice

Of course, if you wear a previous generation sound processor, you don’t have to miss out on all the fun. You can still go in the water with the Aqua+ accessory.

Visit our online store to find Aqua+ for your device.

*The Nucleus 8, Kanso 2 and Kanso 3 sound processors are dust and water resistant to level IP68 of the International Standard  IEC60529. The Nucleus 8, Kanso 2 and Kanso 3 sound processors were tested to a depth of up to 1 metre for up to 1 hour. Refer to the relevant user guide for more information.1,2
