approximately once per second if the Headpiece is not in its proper position over the Implant.

Adjust the position of the Headpiece over the Implant until the red LED light stops flashing (Note: If the audible alarm feature has been activated by the programming audiologist, the alarm will beep once each second until proper lock status is achieved. The audible alarm feature is usually programmed to be active in young children who typically do not report interruptions in sound transmission).

When the Headpiece is properly positioned over the Implant, the red LED light will stop flashing. This signifies the system is sending information correctly between the Headpiece and the Implant. If lock cannot be established, replace the cable or Headpiece, as described later in this section.

3. Microphone and System Status

When the battery and lock sequences are complete, the microphone and system status can be verified.

To check the microphone and system status, turn the Program Switch to the desired program position.

Adjust the Volume Control to the 12:00 position and the Sensitivity Control to the 10:30 position.

Observe the green LED Indicator as you snap your fingers or speak loudly near the microphone. The green light should illuminate with each snap of your fingers and with each syllable.

If the green light still does not illuminate, replace the Cable and repeat the system check sequence steps 1-3, as just described.
