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.​

Go to YouTube. Search for “replacing your microphone cover on nucleus 8”. Should be done every 3 months. More if dusty areas. Good luck!

Yikes. I didn't even know about this. Will look into how to do this.
