User Guide for the Kyocera K342 Phone v
Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) with Mobile Phones
Some mobile phones and hearing devices (hearing
aids and cochlear implants), when used together,
result in buzzing, humming, or whining noises
detected by the user. 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 are rated have the
rating on their box or a label on the box.
The ratings are not guarantees and 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.
M-Ratings — Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC
requirements and are likely to generate less
interference to hearing devices than phones that are
not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity
to this type of interference. Your hearing device
manufacturer or hearing health professional may
help you choose the proper rating for your mobile
phone. The more immune your hearing aid is, the
less likely you are to experience interference noise
from mobile phones.

Affairs Bureau Web site at www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro.
