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 this. M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements 

and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than phones that are not 

labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 

meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices 

than phones that are not labeled. T4 is the better/ higher of the two ratings. Hearing 

devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health 

professional may help you find this rating. Higher ratings mean that the hearing device 

is relatively immune to interference noise. The hearing aid and wireless phone rating 

values are then added together. A sum of 5 is considered acceptable for normal use. A 

sum of 6 is considered for best use. 

 

In the example illustrated above, if a hearing aid meets the M2 level rating and the 

wireless phone meets the M3 level rating, the sum of the two values equal M5. This 

should provide the hearing-aid user with 

“normal

 

usage”

 while using their hearing aid
