Personalising settingsYou can use your remote assistant to personalise your processor settings (e.g. change the processor microphone direction) to suit your listening needs. You can change the processor settings only when the processor is turned on and within operating distance. If the remote assistant is paired with two processors, both processors need to be turned on and within operating distance.You can also personalise your remote assistant settings (e.g. change the brightness of the remote assistant display).If you accidentally change a processor setting, or you wish to return to the default settings, you can easily reset processor and program settings to the values set by your clinician. You can also reset remote assistant settings to the default settings.To personalise your processor or remote assistant settings:Turn on your processor and ensure that it is within operating 1. distance. From the Home screen, press the Cochlear key.2. To select the processor settings menu, press the upper left soft 3. key.

Caring for your remote assistant Protecting your remote assistant To protect your remote assistant against impact and scratches, Cochlear recommends that you use a protective case. The following protective cases are available from Cochlear: • Cochlear™ Nucleus® CR100 Series Belt Case: You can insert the remote assistant into the belt case and attach it to your belt. The belt case can be rotated to adjust its position on the belt. When you want to use your remote assistant, remove it from the belt case.Figure 77: Remote assistant belt case • Cochlear™ Nucleus® CR100 Series Leather Case: The leather case provides you with the fl exibility of either attaching the remote assistant to your belt, or carrying it in your handbag or pocket. You can use and charge the remote assistant while it is in the leather case.Figure 78: Remote assistant leather case© Cochlear Limited 2009 CR110 User Guide - 57195993 Iss3 CR110 user guide 01.nu.indd 57 13/05/2009 5:12:38 PM
• Cochlear™ Nucleus® CR100 Series Protective Case: This is a fl exible rubber case into which you can insert the remote assistant. It is suitable for use by both children and adults, and is available in a choice of colours. The protective case can be worn around the neck using the remote assistant lanyard. You can use and charge the remote assistant while it is in the protective case.Figure 79: Protective caseWhen using the remote assistant while it is in a protective case, you may notice a slight decrease in the operating range. If this happens, either remove the remote assistant from the case when using it, or hold the case close to your processor.When the remote assistant is attached to your belt, certain arm positions (e.g. arm swinging past the belt when walking) may affect communication. If this happens, remove the remote assistant from the case when using it. Using the remote assistant lanyardThe Cochlear™ Nucleus® CR100 Series Lanyard allows you to wear the remote assistant around your neck.You can attach the lanyard to the remote assistant using the hole located on the back of the remote assistant. When threading the lanyard, always insert the lanyard loop through the bottom hole, which is the hole just above the personal identifi cation label. 58 - CR110 User Guide © Cochlear Limited 2009Caring for your remote assistant195993 Iss3 CR110 user guide 01.nu.indd 58 13/05/2009 5:12:51 PM

Technical informationThe remote assistant wireless communication link operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band using GFSK (Gaussian Frequency Shift Keying) on 10 channels. The link uses a proprietary bi-directional communication protocol and operates over a distance of up to 2m from the CP810 processor. When interference is present, the wireless communication link switches between the 10 channels to fi nd a channel where the interference least affects the operation of the link. The remote assistant indicates via its display and light indicator when the processor is not within operating distance, and when the link has been interrupted due to interference. For more information, see Holding and operating your remote assistant in this user guide.
