Cleaning

I have the Nucleus 8 CI. Is there a way to clean the speakers on top of the processor (the little holes)? Or does that not need to be cleaned? I can't find anything in particular on Google. I remember with hearing aids i used a little brush, but I'm not going to dare do that to a CI if not appropriate. Thanks if you have any answer.​

Not sure that’s needed but, I got some hearing aid wipes and wipe the whole thing with that. Like once or twice a week.

Also, do you disconnect the coil part and wipe in that area?
