Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) regulations for Mobile
phones
In 2003, the FCC adopted rules to make digital wireless telephones compatible with hearing aids
and cochlear implants. Although analog wireless phones do not usually cause interference with
hearing aids or cochlear implants, digital wireless phones sometimes do because of
electromagnetic energy emitted by the phone's antenna, backlight, or other 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. 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.
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 your service provider or the
manufacturer of this phone for information on hearing aid compatibility. If you have questions
about return or exchange policies, consult your service provider or phone retailer.
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 be more usable with
a hearing device’s telecoil (“T Switch” or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. T4 is the
better/ higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing devices have telecoils in them.)
