62 NUCLEUS 7 SOUND PROCESSOR USER GUIDE
Warnings
For parents and carers
• Removable parts of the system (e.g. microphone cover,
magnets, batteries, battery cover, o-ring, earhooks) can be
lost or may be a choking or strangulation hazard. Keep out
of reach of children or use the tamper-resistant lock on the
battery module and/or cover.
• Parents and carers are advised that unsupervised use of
long cables (e.g. coil or accessory cables) may present a
risk of strangulation.
• 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 and coil
immediately if there is any discomfort or pain (e.g. if
device becomes hot, or sound is uncomfortably loud) and
contact your clinician.
