M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 orM4 meet FCC requirements for hearing aid compatibility and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than unrated phones. (M4 is the better/higherof the two ratings.)

T-Ratings: Phones ratedT3 orT4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T Switch”or“Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. (T4 is the better/higherof the two ratings. Note that not all hearing devices have telecoils in them.)

Hearing aid devices may also be measured forimmunity to interference noise from wireless phones and should have ratings similarto phones. Ask yourhearing healthcare professional forthe rating of yourhearing aid. Add the rating of yourhearing aid and yourphone to determine probable usability:

Any combined rating equal to orgreaterthan six offers excellent use.

Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.
