If the headpiece magnet is too strong, pressure sores may
develop at the headpiece site. If this happens, or if you
experience any discomfort, irritation, pressure, or redness
in this area, contact your cochlear implant professional.

Although electromagnetic emissions of the Slim HP
Standard have been confirmed within safe limits, some
other devices could be sensitive to such emissions. If you
notice other devices do not behave as expected when
your Slim HP Standard is nearby, separate the devices.

The magnetic field created by the headpiece magnet
may alter the programming of magnetic shunts. Users
of magnetic shunts should consider off-the-shelf
retention methods.

In the event that you experience any issues with
your product, please contact your cochlear implant
professional or the manufacturer. Do not attempt
to service or modify the Slim HPs. Doing so may
compromise system performance and will void the
manufacturer’s warranty. Products should be serviced
only at Advanced Bionics and damaged products
should be returned to Advanced Bionics.
