Wireless Devices
On July 10, 2003, the U.S
(FCC) Report and Order in WT Docket 01- 309 modified the
exception of wireless phones under the Hearing Aid Compatibi
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 a

implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining no
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
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
rated have the rating on their box or a label located on the box.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on th
user’s hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device
happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able

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.
