NUCLEUS 7 SOUND PROCESSOR USER GUIDE
• Do not place the device or accessories inside any part of
your body (e.g. nose, mouth).
• Seek medical advice before entering any environment that
may adversely affect the operation of your Cochlear
implant, including areas protected by a warning notice
preventing entry by patients fitted with a pacemaker.
• Some types of digital mobile telephones (e.g. Global
System for Mobile communications (GSM) as used in
some countries) may interfere with the operation of your
external equipment. You may hear distorted sound when
close, 1-4 m (~3-12 ft), to a digital mobile telephone in
use.
• For Cochlear Nucleus cochlear implant recipients only, the
maximum diving depth is 40 m (~131 ft). Seek medical
advice before diving to ensure you do not have any
conditions that might make diving contraindicated
(e.g. middle ear infection). When wearing a mask, avoid
pressure over the implant site.
• Before activities that create electrostatic discharge
(e.g. playing on plastic slides), remove your processor. In
rare cases, discharge of static electricity can damage your
Cochlear implant’s electrical components or corrupt the
processor’s program. If static electricity is present
(e.g. when putting on clothes over your head, or getting
out of a car), before the Cochlear implant system touches
any object or person, you should touch something
conductive such as a metal door handle.
