The wireless telephone industry has developed
ratings to assist hearing device users in finding
wireless devices that may be compatible with their
hearing devices. Not all wireless devices have been
rated. Wireless devices that are rated will have the
rating displayed on the box together with other rele-
vant approval markings.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary
depending on the user’s hearing device and hearing
loss. If your hearing device is vulnerable to interfer-
ence, you may not be able to use a rated wireless
device successfully. Consulting with your hearing
health professional and testing the wireless device
with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate
it for your personal needs.
This smartphone has been tested and rated for use
with hearing aids for some of the wireless technolo-
gies that the smartphone uses. However, other wire-
less technologies may be used in this smartphone
that have not been tested for use with hearing
aids. It is important to try the dierent features of
your smartphone thoroughly and in dierent loca-
tions to determine if you hear any interfering noise
when using this smartphone with your hearing aid
or cochlear implant. Consult your wireless service
provider about its return and exchange policies, and
for information about hearing aid compatibility.
