Using Your BlackBerry® 8830 With a Hearing Aid Device

Your BlackBerry® device has been tested for hearing aid device compatibility. When some wireless devices 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 wireless devices also vary in the amount of interference they generate.

The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings for some of their wireless devices, 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 have been rated have a label located on the box. Your

BlackBerry® 8830 World Edition smartphone has an M4/T4 rating.

These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the level of immunity of your hearing device and degree of your hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use a rated wireless device successfully. Trying out the wireless device with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs.

M-Ratings:Wireless devices rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than wireless devices that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.

T-Ratings:Wireless devices rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more usable with a hearing device's telecoil (“T Switch” or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated wireless devices. T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing devices have telecoils in them.)

The more immune your hearing aid device is, the less likely you are to experience interference noise from your wireless device. Hearing aid devices should have ratings similar to wireless devices. Ask your hearing healthcare professional for
