Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device

Your Warp is compliant with the FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) requirements. For additional HAC
information, including the HAC rating of this product, please refer to www.zteusa-support.com.
When 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 ratings for some of their mobile phones to assist hearing device users in finding phones
that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that have been rated
have a label on the box.
Your Warp has been tested for hearing aid device compatibility and has an M4/T3.
These ratings are not guaranteed. Results will vary, depending on the level of immunity of your hearing device and
the degree of your 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 with
hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
T-Ratings: Phones 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 phones. T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
(Note that not all hearing devices contain telecoils.) The more immune your hearing aid device is, the less likely
you are to experience interference noise from your wireless phone.
