Adjusting and replacing the coil magnet
If the magnet strength is too weak, the coil may fall off. If it is too
strong, it may cause discomfort or skin irritation. You may consult your
clinician if you are unsure about correct magnet strength.
Make sure the coil is positioned correctly against the implant by placing
it where the coil magnet “pull” feels the strongest. You can change how
firmly the magnet sits on your head by adjusting its depth in the coil. If
adjusting the depth of the magnet is not sufficient, you can replace the
magnet with a stronger or weaker magnet.
Adjusting magnet depth
To adjust magnet depth:
1.
Place the thumb and index
finger on the magnet as
shown.
2.
Turn the magnet in a
clockwise direction to
increase magnet strength,
or in an anti-clockwise
direction to reduce
strength.
