The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings
to assist hearing device users in finding wireless devices
that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not
all wireless devices have been rated. Wireless devices
that are rated will have the rating displayed on the box
together with other relevant approval markings.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary
depending on the user’s hearing device and hearing
loss. If your hearing device is vulnerable to interference,
you may not be able to use a rated wireless device
successfully. Consulting with your hearing health
professional and testing the wireless device with your
hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your
personal needs.
This smartphone has been tested and rated for use
with hearing aids for some of the wireless technologies
that the smartphone uses. However, other wireless
technologies may be used in this smartphone that
have not been tested for use with hearing aids. It
is important to try the different features of your
smartphone thoroughly and in different locations to
determine if you hear any interfering noise when using
this smartphone with your hearing aid or cochlear
implant. Consult your wireless service provider about
its return and exchange policies, and for information
about hearing aid compatibility.
