Using your sound processor

The button on your sound processor lets

you choose from your pre-set programs

and enable/disable wireless streaming.

You can choose to enable the audio

indicators to alert you of changes to the

settings and processor status.

Your sound processor is programmed

to be used as either a left or right-sided

device. Your hearing care professional will

have marked your processor(s) with a L or

R indicator.

If you are a bilateral user, changes you

make to one device will automatically

apply to the second device.

On/off

See figure 2

1. Turn on your sound processor by

completely closing the battery

compartment.

2. Turn off your sound processor

by gently opening the battery

compartment until you feel the first

“click”.

When your sound processor is turned off

and then back on again, it will return to

the default setting (program one).

Status indicator

See figure 3

Your sound processor is equipped with

audible indicators. For a an overview of

the audible indicators, refer to the table at

the back of this section.

Your hearing care professional can disable

the audio indicators if you prefer.

Change program/streaming

See figure 4

professional you will have selected up

to four pre-set programs for your sound

processor:

Program 1: _______________________________

Program 3: _______________________________

Program 4: _______________________________

These programs are suitable for different

listening environments. Ask your hearing

care professional to fill in your specific

programs.

To switch programs, press and release

the button on your sound processor. If

know which program you are using:

Program 1: 1 beep

Program 2: 2 beeps

Program 3: 3 beeps

Program 4: 4 beeps

Adjust volume

Your hearing care professional has set the

volume level for your sound processor.

You can adjust the volume level with the

optional Cochlear Baha Remote Control,

English

Talk on the phone

See figure 5

For best results, use a Cochlear Wireless

Phone Clip or stream the conversation

directly from your iPhone. When using

a normal handheld phone, place the

receiver near the microphone inlet of your

sound processor instead of near your

ear. Ensure the receiver does not touch

the sound processor as this may result in

feedback.

Replace battery

See figure 7

When there is approximately one hour

of battery power remaining, you will

hear an audio indicator comprising of

two sets of four short beeps. At this time

you may experience low amplification. If

the battery runs down completely, the

sound processor will beep and then stop

working.

Use one of the included batteries (zinc-

air, non-rechargeable) as a replacement.

The batteries included in the sound

processor kit reflect Cochlear’s latest

recommendations. Contact your hearing

care professional for additional batteries.

1. Hold the sound processor with the

back facing upwards.

2. Gently open the battery compartment

until it is completely open. Remove

the old battery. Dispose of the battery

according to local regulations. Remove

the sticker on the + side of the new

battery. Insert the new battery with

the + sign facing upwards in the

battery compartment.

3. Gently close the battery compartment

until it is completely closed.

Battery tips

• Battery life decreases as soon as the

battery is exposed to air (when the

plastic strip has been removed).

• Battery life depends on daily use,

the volume setting, the use of

wireless audio streaming, the sound

environment, the program setting,

and battery strength.

• To maximise battery life, switch off the

sound processor when its not in use.

• If a battery leaks, replace it

immediately.

Optional tamper-proof battery door

To prevent the accidental opening of

the battery door, an optional tamper-

resistant battery door is available. This is

particularly useful to prevent children, and

other recipients in need of supervision,

from accidentally accessing the battery.

Contact your hearing care professional for

a tamper-resistant battery door.

To use the tamper-proof battery door:

See figure 9

• To unlock the device, carefully insert

the tip of a pen in the small hole on

the battery door and gently open the

battery compartment.

• To lock the device, gently close

the battery compartment until it is

completely closed.

• Before use, verify that the tamper-

proof battery door is locked.

WARNING:

Batteries can be harmful if swallowed,

put in the nose or in the ear. Be sure

to keep your batteries out of reach of

small children and other recipients in

need of supervision. Before use, verify

that the tamper-resistant battery

door is properly closed. In the event

a battery is accidentally swallowed, or

stuck in the nose or in the ear, seek

immediate medical attention at the

nearest emergency centre.

Attaching the safety line

See figure 6

Before connecting your sound processor,

attach the safety line and clip it to your

shirt or jacket.

Cochlear recommends connecting the

safety line when engaging in physical

activities. Children should use the safety

line at all times.

General care

Your Baha sound processor is a delicate

electronic device. Follow these guidelines

to keep it in proper working order:

• When not in use, turn off your sound

processor and store it free from dust

and dirt.

• If you will not be using your sound

processor for a long period, remove

the battery.

• During physical activities, secure your

sound processor by using the safety

line.

• Remove your sound processor before

applying hair conditioners, mosquito

repellent and or similar products.

• Avoid exposing your sound processor

to extreme temperatures.

• Your sound processor is not

waterproof. Do not use it when

swimming and avoid exposing it to

heavy rain.

• For cleaning your sound processor

and snap coupling use the

Baha sound processor Cleaning kit.

If the sound processor becomes very

wet

1. Immediately open the battery door

and remove the battery.

2. Put your sound processor in a

container with drying capsules such

as a Dri-Aid Kit, etc. Leave it to dry out

overnight. Drying kits are available

from most hearing care professionals.

English

Feedback (whistling) problems

See figure 11

• Check to ensure that your sound

processor is not in contact with items

such as glasses or a hat, since that

can cause feedback. Also ensure the

sound processor is not in contact with

your head or ear.

• Check that the battery compartment

is closed.

• Check that there is no external

damage to the sound processor.

Share the experience

See figure 10

Family members and friends can “share

the experience” of bone conduction

hearing. The test rod can be used by

others to hear with the sound processor.

To use the test rod

1. Turn on your sound processor and

snap it onto the test rod using the tilt

technique. Hold the rod against the

skull bone behind an ear. Plug both

ears and listen.

2. To avoid feedback (whistling), the

sound processor should not touch

anything other than the test rod.
