FOR YOUR SAFETY
components. Your phone is compliant with FCC HAC regulations (ANSI
C63.19- 2011).
While some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing
aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or
whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this
interference noise and phones also vary in the amount of interference they
generate. The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system
for wireless phones to assist hearing device users in finding phones that
may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been
rated. Phones that are rated have the rating on their box or a label located
on the box. These ratings are not guaranteed. Results will vary depending
on the user’s hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device
happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use a
rated phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your hearing device is
the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs.
This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some
of the wireless technologies that it uses. However, there may be some
newer wireless technologies used in this phone that have not been tested
yet for use with hearing aids. It is important to try the different features of
this phone thoroughly and in different locations, using your hearing aid or
cochlear implant, to determine if you hear any interfering noise. Consult
Customer Service or the manufacturer of this phone for information on
hearing aid compatibility. If you have questions about return or exchange
policies, consult Customer Service.
