Introduction<br />

Overview<br />

Nucleus Freedom Sound Processor<br />

The Nucleus ® Freedom Sound Processor is used together<br />

with a Nucleus ® Freedom <strong>implant</strong> or a Nucleus ® 24<br />

<strong>implant</strong>, (specifically the CI24R and CI24M models) to<br />

transmit sound to the cochlea.<br />

The Freedom Sound Processor consists of a Processing Unit,<br />

coil and a choice of three Controllers.<br />

The BTE Controller allows the Sound Processor to be worn<br />

behind the ear as a BTE Sound Processor. It is powered<br />

by three 675 disposable batteries or the BTE rechargeable<br />

battery.<br />

The Mini BTE Controller also allows the Sound Processor<br />

to be worn behind the ear as a BTE Sound Processor. It is<br />

powered by two 675 disposable batteries.<br />

The Bodyworn Controller is worn on the body as a body<br />

worn Sound Processor. It uses either two AAA nickel/metalhydride<br />

(NiMH) batteries, or disposable alkaline batteries.<br />

The three Controllers can be used interchangeably with the<br />

same Processing Unit.<br />

Warning<br />

The Freedom Sound Processor contains small parts<br />

that may be hazardous if swallowed, or may cause<br />

choking if ingested or inhaled.<br />

Infants and young children should wear the Bodyworn<br />

Controller in a Cochlear-provided, tamper-resistant<br />

pouch.
