Advanced Bionics Naida CI Q90 Instructions For Use Manual page 5

• Remove your sound processor and headpiece before
entering a room where an MRI scanner is located.
Cautions
• Remove external equipment to stop stimulation if
uncomfortable sounds are heard.
• It is important to have the correct magnet strength so
the recipient does not experience discomfort or
retention issues. If an insufficient number of magnets
is used in the headpiece, it may fall off more than
is acceptable. If too many magnets are used in the
headpiece, you 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 unusu-
ally 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 cellular phones, may affect sound
quality of the Naída CI sound processor and
accessories; however, there is no safety hazard
associated with such equipment.
