Using your processor This section describes how to use the buttons on your processor. The sequence of button presses that are described in each of the sections below are part of the Simple user interface. If your processor has the Advanced user interface enabled, see Advanced user interface for information on the processor functions you can control and the button press sequences. Turning your processor on and off To be able to hear sound from your processor, the processor needs to be turned on and the coil needs to be connected to the implant. To turn on your processor, press and hold the lower button for at least one second until you either hear sounds (if your processor is in place on your head), or until you see short flashes of green. The number of flashes you see corresponds to the number of the current program (e.g. if your current program is program 2, you see two flashes). For more information on programs, see the following section. To turn off, press and hold the lower button for at least one second, until the sound stops, or you see a steady orange light. Do not remove batteries, or detach the battery module to turn off your processor. Changing programs Programs help you hear better in different listening situations. Up to four programs can be enabled by your clinician, depending on your listening needs. The four programs are: • Everyday: Ideal for the typical listening situations of everyday life. It can adjust the sounds you hear for maximum clarity and comfort. • Noise: Suitable for environments with significant background noise, improving the audibility of wanted sound from all sides. • Focus: Useful where there is significant background noise, but the focus is on hearing what one person or a small group of people are saying. • Music: Used to listen to all types of music from any audio source. You can change programs to suit your listening situation (e.g. use the Music program when listening to music). © Cochlear Limited 2009 CP810 Sound Processor User Guide - 29 195992 Iss3 CP810 user guide 01.indd 29 13/05/2009 4:24:37 PM

Using your processor To change the current program: 1. If the processor is turned off, turn it on. 2. Press the lower button until the program changes to the one you want. Each successive button press changes the program to the next one (e.g. to change from program 1 to program 2, press once). The number of green light flashes you see corresponds to the number of the selected program (e.g. after you change from program 1 to program 2, you see two short flashes of green). If private tones are enabled, you hear two private tones. The program you select operates until you change it. When you turn your processor off and on again, it will return to the program and settings you were using before you switched it off. Understanding indicator lights You see an indicator light when you perform a function (e.g. change the program), or when there is a problem (e.g. processor battery is empty).
