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-aids. 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 aids
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.
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 M4.
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 T3.
Please power off the Bluetooth
®
function while using hearing aid devices with your A621BL.
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 standard.

THIS MODEL DEVICE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines
when used with the TCL Communication Ltd. Accessories supplied or designated for this product. Use
of other accessories may not ensure compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines.
Your wireless mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured
not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines
are based on the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies:
 American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-1992 .
 National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP). Report 86. 1986.
 International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996.
