Warnings
For parents and carers
• Removable parts of the system (e.g. microphone
protectors, batteries, magnets, battery cover, Safety Line)
can be lost or may be a choking or strangulation hazard.
Keep out of reach of children or lock the tamper-proof
screw on the processor cover.
• Keep the dry brick from the dry aid kit away from small
children. Swallowing this material can cause serious
internal injuries.
• Carers must routinely check the device for signs of
overheating and for signs of discomfort or skin irritation at
the implant site. Remove the processor immediately if
there is any discomfort or pain (e.g. if device becomes hot,
or sound is uncomfortably loud) and inform clinician.
• Carers must monitor for signs of discomfort or skin
irritation if a retention aid (e.g. headband) is used that
applies pressure to the sound processor. Remove the aid
immediately if there is any discomfort or pain, and inform
clinician.
• Dispose of used batteries promptly and carefully, in
accordance with local regulations. Keep away from
children.
• Do not allow children to replace batteries without adult
supervision.
