Advanced Bionics Slim HP Instructions For Use Manual page 10

Insert the Slim HP Magnet into the magnet well of the
1.
headpiece.
For recipients using the Standard Magnet, no specific
a.
magnet orientation is required.
For recipients using the 3D Magnet, the magnet
b.
should be inserted so that the arrow on the magnet
points up when the headpiece is on the head.
Attach a color cap (See "Color Caps" section).
2.
3. Attach the headpiece and cable to your sound
processor (See "Cables" section).
4. Then place the bottom side of the headpiece over the
internal magnet of your cochlear implant.
NOTE: For recipients of HiRes Ultra 3D implants, if the
headpiece repels or pushes away when brought over
the internal device, rotate the headpiece back and forth
as you move the headpiece closer towards the implant.
Once attraction is felt, adjust the headpiece to the
original orientation and place on head.
NOTE: For recipients of HiRes Ultra 3D implants, when
in a magnetic field or when the headpiece is removed,
you may feel the internal components of the magnet
vibrate and/or rotate. This movement is expected as
the magnets are designed to rotate in the presence
of strong magnetic fields. This movement may be
noticeable and is not expected to be uncomfortable.
