Intended use
The Cochlear™Baha®5 SuperPower 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 65 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 be conducted
via the skull bone directly to the cochlea, which improves
hearing performance. The sound processor can be used
together with the Baha Softband.
The fitting is to be done either at a hospital, by an
audiologist, or in some countries, by a hearing care
professional.

Intended use
The Cochlear™Baha®5 SuperPower 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 65 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 be
conducted via the skull bone directly to the cochlea, which
improves hearing performance. The sound processor can
be used together with the Baha Softband.
The fitting is to be done either at a hospital, by an
audiologist, or in some countries, by a hearing care
professional.

Pilas
Hay dos pilas diferentes para el
Baha 5 SuperPower: el módulo de pila recargable
estándar y el módulo de pila recargable compacto.
Solicite más información sobre la elección de la
pila al profesional de la audición.
Duración de la pila
Deben cambiarse las pilas cuando sea
necesario, tal como lo haría con cualquier otro
dispositivo electrónico. La vida de la pila varía
según los programas utilizados a diario, el
ambiente acústico empleado por los accesorios
inalámbricos y el tamaño de la pila.
La vida útil de la pila recargable es de 365 ciclos
de carga como mínimo. Se tarda unas cuatro
horas en recargar por completo una pila
recargable.
A medida que envejecen, las pilas recargables
pueden tardar más tiempo en recargarse. Para
aprovechar al máximo la vida útil de las pilas
recargables, recárguelas siempre antes de usarlas.
Cuando queda aproximadamente una hora de
funcionamiento, un indicador sonoro emite cuatro
pitidos cortos dos veces y el indicador visual
parpadea repetidamente. En este momento puede
experimentar una amplificación baja. Si la pila
se agota por completo, el procesador de sonido
emite un pitido y después deja de funcionar.
