Advanced Bionics Slim HP Instructions For Use Manual page 5

Do not allow children to place the Slim HPs or Slim HP
•
Magnets in the mouth.
The large Slim HP Color Cap is for use by recipients
•
older than 3 years of age, as this color cap and
the Slim HP magnet may become displaced upon
dropping.
Due to increased risk of strangulation, do not use
•
cables longer than 81cm (32") with young children.
Remove your sound processor and consult your coch-
•
lear implant professional if uncomfortable sounds are
heard or in case of discomfort, pain or skin irritation.
• Be sure to choose a cable length that does not require
looping or bundling of the cable due to excess length.
• The headpiece must only be used by the intended
person and not by others.
• Do not use a headpiece, magnet, or any associated
part, that is broken, damaged, or cracked.
• The color cap must be attached when the headpiece
is in use.
• Store spare magnets safely and away from cards that
may have a magnetic strip (e.g. credit cards) and from
other spare magnets or headpieces.
High levels of static electricity may damage electronic
•
components of your sound processor or implant. Care
should be taken to avoid exposure of the system to
static electricity.
Use the lowest strength magnet required to ensure
•
sufficient magnetic attraction of the headpiece.
