Remove the monitor earphones immediately if the sound level is uncomfortably loud and inform your clinician. If the coil magnet is too strong or is in contact with the skin, pressure sores may develop at the implant site. If this happens, or if you experience tightness or pain in this area, stop using your sound processor and contact your clinician. Do not apply continued pressure to the coil when in contact with the skin (e.g. sleeping while lying on coil, or using tight tting headwear). Do not push the volume too high for comfort in case a loud noise occurs nearby. 64 NUCLEUS 7 SOUND PROCESSOR USER GUIDE 592753_1-06_EN_CP1000_UG_EMEA.indd 64 14/06/2016 1:23:59 PM DRAFT ONLY FOR CLINICAL TESTING If you need to adjust the volume often, or if adjusting volume ever causes discomfort, contact your clinician. Do not let your processor or parts entangle with any jewellery (e.g. earhook and earrings) or machinery. Do not place the processor or parts in any household devices (e.g. microwave oven, dryer). Do not expose the processor or parts to heat (e.g. never leave them in sunlight, behind a window or in a car). Do not use a dry aid kit that has an Ultra Violet C (UVC) lamp (e.g. do not use the Freedom Dry and Store). The magnetic attachment of your sound processor to your implant may be affected by other magnetic sources. Store spare coil magnets safely and away from cards that may have a magnetic strip (e.g. credit cards, bus tickets). Your device contains magnets that should be kept away from life supporting devices (e.g. cardiac pacemakers and ICDs (implantable cardioverter debrillators) and magnetic ventricular shunts), as the magnets may affect the function of these devices. Keep your processor at least 15 cm (6 in) from such devices. Contact the manufacturer of the specic device to nd out more. Your sound processor and remote control radiate electromagnetic energy that may interfere with life supporting devices, (e.g. cardiac pacemakers and ICDs). Keep your processor and remote control at least 15 cm
(6 in) from such devices. Contact the manufacturer of the specic device to nd out more.

Wireless communication link The wireless communication link operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band using GFSK (Gaussian frequency-shift keying), and a proprietary bidirectional communication protocol. It continuously switches between channels to avoid interference on any specic channel. The remote control operates over 4 channels, over a distance of up to 2 metres from the processor. It indicates via its display when the processor is out of operating distance (or switched off) or when the link is interrupted due to broad spectrum interference (see remotes user guide for more information). The True Wireless accessories operate over 16 channels, over a distance of up to 3 metres for the Phone Clip, and 7 metres for the Mini Microphone and TV Streamer. Bluetooth Smart also operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band, using Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) to combat interference. Operating range is up to 7 metres, and the app indicates when the processor is out of operating distance (or switched off) or when the link is interrupted due to broad spectrum interference.
