for persons with hearing disabilities.
While 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 a rating system for wireless
phones, to assist hearing device users
find phones that may be compatible
with their hearing devices. Not all
phones have been rated. Phones that
are rated have the rating on their box or
a label located on the box.
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. Trying
out the phone with your hearing device
is the best way to evaluate it for your
personal needs.
