CAUTIONS
Remove external equipment to stop stimulation if sounds cause discomfort.
•
It is important for the headpiece to have the correct magnet strength to
•
avoid discomfort or retention issues. If an insufficient number of magnets
are used, the headpiece may fall off more than is acceptable. If too many
magnets are used, the recipient may experience irritation or discomfort. Consult
a clinician if there are any concerns regarding magnet strength. If deemed
appropriate, an audiologist may insert additional magnets or remove magnets
from the headpiece. Do not place additional magnets in the headpiece unless
under the direction of a cochlear implant professional. If the recipient experiences
any redness, irritation, or discomfort, discontinue use of the headpiece immediately
and contact a cochlear implant center. See the headpiece Instructions for Use for
additional information regarding adjustment of headpiece magnet strength.
If the sound processor or accessories become unusually hot or warm, discontinue
•
use immediately and contact Advanced Bionics or a clinician.
Store additional headpieces away from items with magnetic strips (e.g. credit
•
cards, hotel room key cards), as this may de-magnetize cards.
Portable and mobile RF communications equipment, including radios and
•
