Introduction
This guide includes instructions on:
• attaching your sound processor to the SP
magnet
• care, cleaning and maintenance
• using accessories
• troubleshooting
Note on figures: The figures included on the
front and back covers correspond to sections of
information in this manual which are common
to all Baha sound processors. Please reference
the appropriate figure when reading. The sound
processor images shown are representative only
and not to scale. The appearance of the sound
processor included in your kit may vary.
Attaching your sound
processor and SP magnet
See figure 1
The SP magnet attaches to your sound processor
to keep it in place over the implant magnet and to
transfer sound from your sound processor to the
implant.
Use the tilt technique (described below) to
connect and disconnect your sound processor
from the SP magnet. This will ensure it remains in
good working order.
1
Place the SP magnet on a flat surface.
2
Gently tilt and snap the sound processor into
the SP magnet coupling. Ensure you align the
button(s) on the sound processor with the
arrow mark on the SP magnet.
Welcome
Congratulations on getting your Cochlear™ Baha® Attract System. This manual provides
tips and advice on how to best use and care for your Cochlear Baha Attract System. It is
a complement to the sound processor manual part A and does not replace it.
3
With the button(s) and arrow mark facing
upwards, place the sound processor over the
implant behind your ear. It may be easier to
turn the sound processor on before you place it
behind you ear.
4
Remove the sound processor by grasping the
SP magnet with the sound processor still at-
tached. To remove the sound processor from
the SP magnet, place one finger under the
sound processor and gently tilt until it releases.
Note:
• During the initial period of use it is
recommended to gradually increase the time
of use of the SP magnet to allow the skin to
adapt to the pressure from the SP magnet.
If any irritation is noted the SP magnet
should be removed in order to let the skin
rest for a while. If discomfort and/or skin
irritation persist, contact your hearing care
professional.
• To ensure good retention the arrow on the
SP magnet should always face upwards and
you should try to limit the amount of hair
underneath the SP magnet.
See figure 1 image 3.
• To avoid feedback (whistling), ensure that the
sound processor is not touching any other
items, such as glasses or a hat.
• It is recommended to wear a safety line
attached to the sound processor to reduce the
risk of loss or damage.
