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- 09 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-aid. 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 aid 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.
62
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. Your device is rated M3 (ANSI
C63.19-2007).
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. Your device is rated T4 (ANSI
C63.19-2007).
Please power off the Bluetooth® function while using hearing aid devices
with your A845L.
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) C63.19-2007 standard.

found on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA)
Web-site as http://http://www.ctia.org/.
* 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

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.
