When your Device is Wet Do not turn on your device if it is wet. If your device is already on, turn it off and remove the battery immediately (if the device will not turn off or you cannot remove the battery, leave it as-is). Then, dry the device with a towel and take it to a service center. FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) Regulations for Wireless Devices The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has established requirements for digital wireless mobile devices to be compatible with hearing aids and other assistive hearing devices. When individuals employing some assistive hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear implants) use wireless mobile devices, they may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise, and mobile devices also vary in the amount of interference they generate. The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system for wireless mobile devices to assist hearing device users find mobile devices that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all mobile devices have been rated. Mobile devices 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 mobile device successfully. Trying out the mobile device with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs. M-Ratings: Wireless mobile devices rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than mobile devices that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. M-ratings refer to enabling acoustic coupling with hearing aids that do not operate in telecoil mode. T-Ratings: Mobile devices rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than mobile devices that are not labeled. T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. T-ratings refer to enabling inductive coupling with hearing aids operating in telecoil mode. 192

FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC)

Regulations for Wireless Devices

The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has

established requirements for digital wireless mobile devices

to be compatible with hearing aids and other assistive

hearing devices.

When individuals employing some assistive hearing devices

(hearing aids and cochlear implants) use wireless mobile

devices, they may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining

noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others

to this interference noise, and mobile devices also vary in the

amount of interference they generate.

The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating

system for wireless mobile devices to assist hearing device

users find mobile devices that may be compatible with their

hearing devices. Not all mobile devices have been rated.

Mobile devices 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 mobile device successfully. Trying out

the mobile device with your hearing device is the best way to

evaluate it for your personal needs.

M-Ratings

: Wireless mobile devices rated M3 or M4 meet

FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference

to hearing devices than mobile devices that are not labeled.

M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. M-ratings refer to

enabling acoustic coupling with hearing aids that do not

operate in telecoil mode.

T-Ratings

: Mobile devices rated T3 or T4 meet FCC

requirements and are likely to generate less interference to

hearing devices than mobile devices that are not labeled. T4

is the better/higher of the two ratings. T-ratings refer to

enabling inductive coupling with hearing aids operating in

telecoil mode.
