The Personal FM is designed to provide hearing assistance for anyone when background
noise or distance from the sound source make listening difficult. The microphone and
transmitter are placed close to the desired sound source to help minimize background noise
and to effectively eliminate the distance between the listener and the sound source. Because
hearing ability varies, three categories of amplification have been delineated:

MPLIFICATION
Among Low Amplification applications are classroom and similar uses. The PFM System
can be used with headphones or earphones for Central Auditory Processing Disorders,
Learning Disabilities, or Attention Deficit Disorders. The PFM System is used primarily to
boost speech sounds above other background noises, making it easier for the listener to focus
on what is being said. The optional Rugged Headphone (HED 022–children’s size, and HED
021–adult’s size) are recommended for this application. The EAR 013 Single Mini Earphone,
EAR 008 Surround Earphone, or EAR 014 Dual Mini Earphone can also be used.

These applications include the classroom, TV listening, car riding, and one-on-one
conversations. The PFM System can be used with the Single or Dual Mini Earphone
(EAR 013 or EAR 014) for moderate amplification fittings. The Button Receiver Earphone
(EAR 012 WC) is also available for use with a snap-on custom earmold. The PFM System is
also suitable for temporary mild hearing loss due to Otitis Media. The Rugged Headphones
(HED 021) or Surround Earphone (EAR 022 or EAR 008) are recommended since they do
not enter the ear canal.

These applications include the classroom, TV listening, car riding, and one-on-one
conversations. For severe to profound hearing loss, the PERSONAL FM System should be
used in conjunction with a hearing aid. A Neckloop can be used with hearing aids that have a
telecoil. An adaptor cord can be used with hearing aids that have direct audio input.
