Theft and metal detection systems and
Radio Frequency ID (RFID) systems:
Devices such as airport metal detectors,
commercial theft detection systems, and RFID
scanners may produce strong electromagnetic
fields. Some Baha users may experience a
distorted sound sensation when passing through
or near one of these devices. If this occurs, you
should turn off the sound processor when in the
vicinity of one of these devices. The materials
used in the sound processor may activate metal
detection systems. For this reason, you should
carry the Security Control MRI Information Card
with you at all times.
Electrostatic discharge
A discharge of static electricity can damage the
electrical components of the sound processor
or corrupt the program in the sound processor.
If static electricity is present (e.g. when putting
on or removing clothes over the head or getting
out of a vehicle), you should touch something
conductive (e.g. a metal door handle) before your
sound processor contacts any object or person.
Prior to engaging in activities that create extreme
electrostatic discharge, such as playing on plastic
slides, the sound processor should be removed.

Statement:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Note: This device has been tested and found to comply
with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant
to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed
to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This device
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
the device does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning
the device off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the device and receiver.
• Connect the device into an outlet on a circuit different
from the one in which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician
for help.
• Changes or modifications can void the user´s authority
to operate the device.
Intended use
The Cochlear
Baha
5 Power uses bone conduction to
™
®
transmit sounds to the cochlea (inner ear). It is indicated
for people with conductive hearing loss, mixed hearing
loss and single sided sensorineural deafness (SSD).
Furthermore it is indicated for bilateral and paediatric
recipients. Fitting range up to 55 dB SNHL. It works
by combining a sound processor and a small titanium
implant that is placed in the skull behind the ear. The
skull bone integrates with the titanium implant through
a process called osseointegration. This allows sound to
