FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC) Regulations for Wireless Devices
On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Report and Order in WT Docket 01- 309
modified the exception of wireless phones under the Hearing Aid Compatibility Act of 1988 (HAC Act) to require
digital wireless phones be compatible with hearing-aids. The intent of the HAC Act is to ensure reasonable access
to telecommunications services for persons with hearing disabilities. While some wireless phones are used near
some hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining
noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also vary in
the amount of interference they generate. The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system for
wireless phones, to assist hearing device users find phones that may be compatible with their hearing devices.
Not all phones have been rated. Phones 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 phone successfully.
Trying out the phone with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs.
Safety and regulatory guide 11
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference to hearing
devices than phones that are not rated. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. PC40200 is rated M4.
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more usable with a hearing aid’s
telecoil than phones that are not rated. T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. PC40200 is rated T4.
The handset has not been rated for hearing aid compatibility with respect to the Wi-Fi capability.
Please power off the Bluetooth function while using hearing aid devices with your PC40200.
Hearing devices may also be rated.
Your hearing device manufacturer
or hearing health professional may
help you find this rating. Higher
ratings mean that the hearing device
is relatively immune to interference
noise.
The hearing aid and wireless phone rating values are then added together. A sum of 5 is considered acceptable for
normal use. A sum of 6 is considered for better use. A sum of 8 is considered for best use. In the above example,
if a hearing aid meets the M2 level rating and the wireless phone meets the M3 level rating, the sum of the two
values equal M5. This should provide the hearing aid user with “normal usage” while using their hearing aid with
the particular wireless phone. “Normal usage” in this context is defined as a signal quality that is acceptable for
normal operation.
This methodology applies equally for T ratings. The M mark is intended to be synonymous with the U mark. The T
mark is intended to be synonymous with the UT mark. The M and T marks are recommended by the Alliance for
Telecommunications Industries Solutions (ATIS). The U and UT marks are referenced in Section 20.19 of the FCC
Rules. The HAC rating and measurement procedure are described in the American National Standards Institute
(ANSI) C63.19 standard.

* In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phone used by the public is 1.6 Watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over
one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the
public and to account for any variations in usage.
Normal condition only to ensure the radiative performance and safety of the interference. As with other mobile
radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the
safety of personnel, it is recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too close to the
antenna during operation of the equipment.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations. To comply with RF exposure requirements, a minimum
separation distance of 1.5 cm must be maintained between the user’s body and the handset, including the
antenna. Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and similar accessories used by this device should not contain any
metallic components. Body-worn accessories that do not meet these requirements may not comply with RF
exposure requirements and should be avoided.
Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could
impair call quality, damage the phone, or result in violation of regulations. Do not use the phone with a damaged
antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please contact your
local dealer for replacement antenna.
