FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility
(HAC) Regulations for Wireless
Devices
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 to
find 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.
The ratings are not guarantees.
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.
