hearing aids. To ensure that a specific hearing aid works well with this de-
vice, test them together before making a purchase.
The standard for hearing aid compatibility contains two types of ratings:
• M: To use your hearing aid in this mode, make sure that your hearing
aid is set to "M-mode" or acoustic coupling mode, and position the
telephone's receiver near the hearing aid’s built-in microphone. For
the best results, try using the device in different positions relative to
your hearing aid—for example, placing the receiver slightly above the
ear may result in better performance for hearing aids with micro-
phones positioned behind the ear.
• T: To use your hearing aid in this mode, make sure that your hearing
aid is set to "T-mode" or telecoil coupling mode (not all hearing aids
have this mode). For the best results, try using the telephone in dif-
ferent positions relative to your hearing aid—for example, placing the
receiver slightly below or in front of the ear may result in better
performance.
Silence your phone
• Press the volume keys on the side of your phone to adjust the vol-

TTY mode
TTY Mode, also known as Text Telephone, TDD or Teletypewriter for the
Deaf, is designed to help people who are deaf, hard-of-hearing or speech
impaired, or who have speech or language disabilities, communicate over
a phone call. Your phone is compatible with TTY devices. Please check
with the manufacturer of the TTY device to ensure that it supports digital
wireless transmission. Your phone and the TTY device will connect using
a special cable that plugs into your phone’s headset jack. If this cable
was not provided with your TTY device, contact your TTY device manufac-
turer to purchase the connector cable.
