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- 2007). 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.)
Your phone meets the M4/T3 level rating.
Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you
find this rating. For more information about FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility, please go to
