that have not been tested yet for use with hearing aids. It is important to try the different features

Hearing Aid Compatibility Rating
This model handset is designed to comply with the requirements set forth in Section 20.19 of the
Federal Communication Commission’s (FCC) rules governing hearing aid compatibility (HAC), for
the reduction of RF interference and magnetic coupling (T-coil) to hearing aids. The Microphone
(M) rating and T-coil (T) rating are defined and labeled on the handset box. Devices meeting
HAC compliance must have a minimum M3 and/or T3rating or above as defined by the FCC in
accordance with the latest ANSI Standard C63.19. The (M) rating refers to lower RF emission levels
of the handset. The (T) rating refers to the magnetic coupling between the handset and the T-coil
compatible hearing aid. Some hearing aids also provide an (M) rating, and are more immune than
others to interference. To determine the (M) rating of your hearing aid, please contact your hearing
health professional.
