Adjusting Headpiece Magnet Strength

It is important to have the correct magnet strength so you do not experience
discomfort or retention issues. If an insuffi cient number of magnets is used in your
headpiece, it may fall off more often than you fi nd acceptable. If too many magnets
are used in your headpiece, you may experience irritation or discomfort. You should
consult your clinician if you have any concerns regarding magnet strength. If deemed
appropriate, your audiologist may insert additional magnets or remove magnets
from your headpiece. You should not place additional magnets in your headpiece
unless under the direction of a cochlear implant professional. See the headpiece
'Instructions for Use' for additional information regarding adjustment of headpiece
magnet strength.
If you experience any redness, irritation, or discomfort, discontinue use of your
headpiece immediately and contact your cochlear implant center.
If headpiece magnets are swallowed, seek immediate medical attention.
