Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device
Your ZTE C76 device is compliant with the FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility
(HAC) requirements.
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 ZTE C76 has been tested
for hearing aid device compatibility and has an M4 and/or T4 rating.
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.
