Hearing Aid Compatibility Rating
This model handset was 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 is
defined and labeled on the handset box. Devices meeting
HAC compliance must have a minimum M3 and/or T3
rating 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 are
also provided 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. More information about digital wireless
devices and hearing aid compatibility can be found at
