Hearing Aid Compatibility
(HAC) for Wireless
Telecommunication
Devices
This phone has a HAC rating of T4/M3.
What is hearing aid compatibility?
The Federal Communications Commission has
implemented rules and a rating system designed
to enable people who wear hearing aids to more
effectively use these wireless telecommunications
devices. The standard for compatibility of digital
wireless phones with hearing aids is set forth
in American National Standard Institute (ANSI)
standard C63.19.
There are two sets of ANSI standards with ratings
from one to four (four being the best rating): an
“M” rating for reduced interference making it
easier to hear conversations on the phone when
using the hearing aid microphone, and a “T”
rating that enables the phone to be used with
hearing aids operating in the telecoil mode, thus
reducing unwanted background noise.
25
26
Safety InformationSafety Information How will I know which wireless
phones are hearing aid compatible?
The Hearing Aid Compatibility rating is displayed
on the wireless phone box. A phone is considered
Hearing Aid Compatible for acoustic coupling
(microphone mode) if it has an “M3” or “M4”
rating. A digital wireless phone is considered
Hearing Aid Compatible for inductive coupling
(telecoil mode) if it has a “T3” or “T4” rating.
