General precautions and warnings This section contains information on the safe use of your AudioLink. Please read this information carefully. Your healthcare provider or local MEDEL representative will assist you with any additional questions you may have. AudioLink contains electronic components which require special precautions regarding electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). When activating your AudioLink, always follow the guidelines outlined in this section and chapter Technical data, Guidance and manufacturers declaration. Always handle your AudioLink with care to achieve maximum lifetime and to avoidany risks. The electronics are durable but must be treated with care. Do not use the system components under environmental conditions other than those described in chapter Technical data. The defined operating temperature range is between 0 C and +45 C for AudioLink. Avoid excessive heat. Excessive heat might damage AudioLink and make it unusable. If AudioLink should be at a temperature that is outside the defined operating temperature range of 0 C to +45 C, e.g. because it was stored in a cool or hot place, put AudioLink in a place with room temperature (typ. +20 C to +25 C) and wait at least 30 minutes before you use AudioLink. This ensures that AudioLink is not operated outside its defined operating temperature range. Do not leave AudioLink in direct sunlight (especially inside a car). Long exposure to direct sunlight might damage AudioLink. Do not open, except to detach the battery, or alter any system component as this may damage the system and voids warranty claims. Opening or altering system components can lead to serious injuries. Avoid getting your AudioLink wet as this may impair its function. Keep AudioLink in a dry place while bathing, showering or engaging in other waterrelated activities. Do not use AudioLink in the vicinity of strong ionizing radiation (e.g. xray machines) or electromagnetic fields (e.g. MRI machines). Use of AudioLink adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided because it could result in improper operation. If such use is necessary, AudioLink and the other equipment should be observed to verify that they are operating normally. Do not use accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified or approved by MEDEL as this could result in increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased electromagnetic immunity of AudioLink and result in improper operation. 27 General precautions and warnings Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm to any part of AudioLink, including cables specified by MEDEL. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of AudioLink could result. Do not use AudioLink in environments where radio frequency (RF) transmissions areprohibited. CAUTION Use of Bluetooth wireless technology or any changes to the Bluetooth wire less technology (e.g. firmware updates, hardware changes, connection/discon nection of additional devices, etc.) could introduce previously unidentified risks. If such risks are identified, they shall be analysed, evaluated and controlled. PARENTAL GUIDANCE Children shall be instructed not to swallow or put any components of their MEDEL Cochlear Implant System into their mouths or to play with any components. Swallowing of system components could cause suffocation or internal injury. Air travel In addition to EASA (European Aviation Safety Agency) and FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) requirements, airline regulations require suspending wireless operations before boarding an airplane. AudioLink should not be used on aircrafts unless specifi cally permitted by the flight personnel. Please secure your AudioLink by placing it, for instance, in a garment pocket. TV, radio, etc. When intending to connect an external audio device to AudioLink that is powered by mains power, i.e. plugged into the wall or a power strip, always make sure that this mainspowered external audio device meets the safety requirements stated in the standards EN/IEC 60065, EN/IEC 606011 and/or appropriate national standards. If the mainspowered device does not bear a CE mark (), which is usually found on the devices type label, you cannot presume that the mainspowered device meets the above safety requirements and must therefore not be connected to your AudioLink. Connecting a mainspowered device to your AudioLink that does not meet the above safety requirements could cause an electric shock. You can safely connect battery powered external audio devices to your AudioLink. For more information please contactMEDEL. 28 Technical data 7.
