Hearing Aid Compatibility Information
This device supports hearing aid compatibility. Refer to the gift box label for specific rating. This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the wireless technologies it uses. However, there may be newer technologies that have not yet been tested for use with hearing aids. It is important to try the different features of this phone thoroughly and in different locations, using your hearing aid or cochlear implant, to determine if you hear any interfering noise. Ask your service provider or the manufacturer of this phone for information on hearing aid compatibility. When some mobile 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.
