TTY Use With Handset
A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone), is a telecommunications
device that allows people who are deaf or hard of hearing, or who have
speech or language disabilities, to communicate by telephone.
Your phone is compatible with selected TTY devices. Please check
with the manufacturer of your TTY device to ensure that it supports
digital wireless transmission. Your phone and TTY device will
connect via 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 manufacturer to purchase the connector cable.
Note: Not all service providers support TTY. Consult your service
provider for more information.
