Marvel CI uses Li-Ion batteries that are UN38.3-certified. This certification means that Marvel CI rechargeable batteries can be transported by air and placed in checked luggage.
IP 68 means the product is dust-tight and functional after immersion in 1 meter of water for 30 minutes. AB has tested the M Waterproof Battery beyond these minimum requirements by immersing the product in 3 meters of water and by using various types of water.
No, the micro USB port in the M Waterproof Battery is designed to be left unplugged during use in water.
Please see the instructions for use for care and maintenance [here]
Note: The cover for the M T-Mic is the same as the cover for the T-Mic 2 used with the Naída CI Q90 sound processor.
Loss of lock can be indicated in several different ways:
The CeruShield should be replaced regularly, approximately every 4 to 8 weeks, or sooner if debris is noted or if sound quality changes.
There are several ways to verify that your Marvel CI sound processor is functional.
The AB Remote app features a device check screen that allows you to verify functionality of your Marvel CI sound processor. Visit the App Store (Apple devices) or Google Play (Android devices) to download AB Remote.
A Parent/caregiver/partner can also listen to the Marvel CI sound processor with the M Listening Check.
First, try restarting your Marvel CI sound processor. Next, try restarting your smartphone.
In addition, you can change the bandwidth setting in the AB Remote mobile app. Fixed and adaptive bandwidth settings are available.
If Marvel CI is powered off, it will automatically disconnect from a paired device, such as the mobile phone.
If your car is equipped with a Bluetooth system that was previously paired to your mobile phone, it will try to connect your phone every time you enter the car. This may result in a connection loss to Marvel CI, as a phone can only support one headset connection at a time.
The exact behavior depends on the version and configuration of your car’s Bluetooth system. To prevent unwanted switching, you may consider removing your car’s Bluetooth system from your phone’s list of paired devices via the mobile phone configuration screen.
