Tutor courtesy card ‒ direct input
The fmGenie radio system can be a great help to a hearing aid user ‒ a little of your
time to help understand what does what will be much appreciated.
There is no need to be self conscious in
wearing a radio microphone ‒ all the best TV
stars do so.
It is important that you are comfortable
wearing the fmGenie. Please ask for a different
harness if you wish.
