Wearing your processor
Identifying your processors
If you are a bilateral recipient, you may want to use Cochlear™ Nucleus®
CP800 Series Bilateral Identification Adhesive Labels to reduce the
risk of mixing up processors. The labels are available in two colours to
help identify your left (blue) and right (red) ear processors. For more
information, contact your clinician.
To place the label on your processor:
1.
Remove the earhook from
the processing unit by
rotating it.
2.
Place the label on the
earhook end (tip) of the
processing unit. It should
stick easily.
3.
Attach the earhook by
pushing the lower end of
the earhook back onto the
processing unit.
If you want to remove the label from the processing unit, you can easily
peel it off with your fingers.

Using your processor
This section describes how to use the buttons on your processor. The
sequence of button presses that are described in each of the sections
below are part of the Simple user interface. If your processor has the
Advanced user interface enabled, see Advanced user interface for
information on the processor functions you can control and the button
press sequences.
Turning your processor on and off
To be able to hear sound from your processor, the processor needs to be
turned on and the coil needs to be connected to the implant. To turn on
your processor, press and hold the lower button for at least one second
until you either hear sounds (if your processor is in place on your head),
or until you see short flashes of green. The number of flashes you see
corresponds to the number of the current program (e.g. if your current
program is program 2, you see two flashes). For more information on
programs, see the following section.
To turn off, press and hold the lower button for at least one second,
until the sound stops, or you see a steady orange light. Do not remove
batteries, or detach the battery module to turn off your processor.
Changing programs
Programs help you hear better in different listening situations. Up to
four programs can be enabled by your clinician, depending on your
listening needs. The four programs are:
•
Everyday: Ideal for the typical listening situations of everyday life. It
can adjust the sounds you hear for maximum clarity and comfort.
•
Noise: Suitable for environments with significant background
noise, improving the audibility of wanted sound from all sides.
•
Focus: Useful where there is significant background noise, but the
focus is on hearing what one person or a small group of people are
saying.
•
Music: Used to listen to all types of music from any audio source.
You can change programs to suit your listening situation (e.g. use the
Music program when listening to music).

Using your processor
To change the current program:
1.
If the processor is turned off, turn it on.
2.
Press the lower button until the program changes to the one you
want.
Each successive button press changes the program to the next one (e.g.
to change from program 1 to program 2, press once). The number of
green light flashes you see corresponds to the number of the selected
program (e.g. after you change from program 1 to program 2, you see
two short flashes of green). If private tones are enabled, you hear two
private tones.
The program you select operates until you change it. When you turn
your processor off and on again, it will return to the program and
settings you were using before you switched it off.
Understanding indicator lights
You see an indicator light when you perform a function (e.g. change the
program), or when there is a problem (e.g. processor battery is empty).
