Most electronic devices produce electromagnetic fields. Headset cables, like
antennae, pick them up. Common sources of interference include:
•
Radio and TV transmission towers
•
Mobile phone towers
•
Shopping center and airport security systems
•
Some digital mobile phones
•
Battery chargers
The electronic interference (EMI) will be no louder than the programmed
levels and will neither hurt nor damage the processor. If buzzing is still heard,
or distorted speech, turn off the speech processor, take off the coil and
consult the implant clinician.
