Please contact your clinician for more information. © Cochlear Limited 2009 195992 Iss3 CP810 user guide 01.indd 13 CP810 Sound Processor User Guide - 13 13/05/2009 4:23:22 PM 14 - CP810 Sound Processor User Guide 195992 Iss3 CP810 user guide 01.indd 14 © Cochlear Limited 2009 13/05/2009 4:23:22 PM Wearing your processor Your processor is designed to fit neatly and comfortably behind your ear. You can also wear the processing unit behind the ear and attach the battery module to the body. This provides greater comfort and flexibility for both adults and children. You can change the processor coil cable, coil magnet and earhook for optimal comfort (e.g. if the coil cable length is too short, you can easily change the cable to a longer one). This section describes how to wear your processor and wearing options. Placing your processor on your ear To be able to hear sound from the processor, it needs to be placed on the ear. To place your processor on your ear: 1. Place the processing unit over your ear while holding the coil in the other hand. 2. Place the coil on your head. The coil magnet should hold it in place over your implant. You may find it easier to turn on your processor before placing it on your ear. To turn it on, press and hold the lower button for at least one second until you see short flashes of green. The number of flashes you see corresponds to the number of your current program (e.g. if your current program is program 2, you see two green flashes). When you turn on your processor before placing it on your ear, you may see flashes of orange. This indicates that the coil is not placed on your head. If the flashes do not stop even after placing the coil on your head, see Understanding indicator lights for more information. © Cochlear Limited 2009 195992 Iss3 CP810 user guide 01.indd 15 CP810 Sound Processor User Guide - 15 13/05/2009 4:23:22 PM Wearing your processor Attaching the coil and coil cable If the coil is not attached to the processing unit, or the coil cable is not attached to the coil, you need to attach them before placing the processor on your ear.
