has developed a rating system for wireless
phones to assist hearing device users in finding
phones that may be compatible with their hearing

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.

features of this phone thoroughly and in different
locations, using your hearing aid or cochlear

hearing aid compatibility. If you have questions
about return or exchange policies, consult your
service provider or phone retailer.
