Airport Security Metal Detectors

Metal detectors and security scanners, including full body scanners,
will not damage your implant system; however, metal detectors may be
activated as you pass through. To avoid hearing any unwanted sound
when walking through metal detectors or security scanners, you should
reduce the volume on the sound processor or remove your headpiece.

Ultrasonic Sensors

Ultrasonic sensors, sometimes used in lighting sensors and security
systems, will not damage your implant system; however, they may be
picked up by the headpiece microphone and lead to distorted sound
quality when you operate your sound processor in the immediate vicinity
of such a sensor. Additionally, if the ultrasonic sound is of a very high
intensity, the processor system microphone may become damaged.
To avoid hearing any unwanted sound, you should reduce the volume
on your sound processor or remove your headpiece when passing near
an ultrasonic sensor (e.g. in entrances to libraries).

X-Ray Machines

X-ray machines will not damage your sound processor or implant but
may damage your Naída CI M90 and headpiece microphones. Avoid
placing any system microphones in any checked or carry-on baggage
that is screened with X-ray. During airport security screenings, the
sound processor and microphone should be worn through the metal
detector or examined by hand.
