ii NUCLEUS® 7 REMOTE CONTROL USER GUIDEThe Cochlear™ Nucleus® 7 Remote Control (model number: CR310) is a hand-held device for controlling the commonly used functions of your Cochlear Nucleus 7 Sound Processor (model number: CP1000). The remote control allows you to:• change programs• turn volume or sensitivity (if available) up and down• turn True Wireless™ Accessories on and off• turn telecoil on and off.If you have two Nucleus 7 Sound Processors (bilateral), your remote control can communicate with both processors at once. This guide is intended for Cochlear implant recipients and their carers using the Nucleus 7 Sound Processor. For more information, refer to the Nucleus 7 Sound Processor User Guide. Symbols used in this guideNOTE Important information or advice.TIP Time saving hint.CAUTION (no harm) Special care to be taken to ensure safety and effectiveness.

4NUCLEUS® 7 REMOTE CONTROL USER GUIDEPairPairing allows two devices to communicate with each other. Your clinician may have already paired your remote control with your processor. If not, you will need to pair it the first time you use it.If your remote control is not paired to any processor, it displays dashes (shown left) and “blinks” when you press buttons. Pair your processor and remote control1. Turn on your processor and remote control. They must both be “awake” and on at all times while pairing. 2. Place the coil on the back of your remote control.

10 NUCLEUS® 7 REMOTE CONTROL USER GUIDEWireless communication linkThe remote control wireless communication link operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band using GFSK (Gaussian frequency-shift keying) on 4 channels. The link uses a proprietary bidirectional communication protocol and operates over a distance of up to 2 metres from the processor. The wireless communication link continuously switches between the 4 channels to avoid interference on any specific channel. The remote control indicates via its display when the processor is out of operating distance (or switched off) or when the link is interrupted due to broad spectrum interference (see page 7).Environmental protectionYour remote control contains electronic components subject to the Directive 2002/96/EC on waste electrical and electronic equipment. Help protect the environment by not disposing of your remote control or batteries with your unsorted household waste. Please recycle your remote control and batteries according to your local regulations.DRAFT ONLY FOR USABILITY TESTING
