TIPS FOR USING THE SCOLA FM
SYSTEM
GETTING STARTED
SCOLA BUDDY is primarily intended for use in edu-
cational institutions, but can naturally also be used in
other locations where noise, poor acoustics or other
factors restrict speech comprehension .
To get the best out of the SCOLA system, it is impor-

1 . Practise using FM, and try out various listening sit-

2 . Inform others that you are using an FM system for
your hearing aids, so that they understand why
they may have to speak into a microphone . Talk to
the teacher or lecturer in advance; tell him or her

settings and the use of accessories with both SCO-
LA BUDDY and SCOLA TEACH/SCOLA TALK are
correct .

listening situations and recommended settings for
