hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your
personal needs.
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labeled.M4isthebetter/higherofthetwo
ratings.
T-Ratings:PhonesratedT3orT4meetFCC
requirements and are likely to generate less
interference to hearing devices than phones that
arenotlabeled.T4isthebetter/higherofthetwo
ratings.
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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’s
acceptable for normal operation. The M mark is
intended to be synonymous with the U mark. The
