service provider or the manufacturer of
this phone for information on hearing
aid compatibility. If you have questions
about return or exchange policies,
consult your service provider or phone
retailer.’’
Second, the Commission is allowing
companies offering one or two handset
models over the GSM air interface, if
they would have been eligible for the
amended de minimis exception rule but
for their size, to satisfy their obligation
to offer one hearing aid-compatible
handset over the GSM air interface by
offering a handset that lets the consumer
reduce maximum transmit power for
GSM operations in the 1900 MHz band
by up to 2.5 decibels. The Commission
grants this exception subject to certain
conditions, one of which is that
companies that choose to use this
exception must adequately inform
consumers of the need to select the
power reduction option to achieve
hearing aid compatibility and of the
consequences of doing so. Specifically,
wherever a manufacturer or service
provider provides the hearing aid
compatibility rating for such a handset,
it shall indicate that user activation of
a special mode is necessary to meet the
hearing aid compatibility standard. In
addition, the handset manual or a
product insert must explain how to
activate the special mode and that doing
so may result in a diminution of
coverage.
Beyond the updated disclosure
requirements noted above, one
additional change is being made to the
current collection. Two fields will be
changed on FCC Form 655 in order to
clarify information previously gathered
in this collection and bring the
collection into conformance with the
amended rules. Specifically,
manufacturers and service providers
will be asked to provide the brand
names under which they are offering
digital commercial mobile radio services
(if a service provider) or handsets (if a
device manufacturer), in order to avoid
confusion by identifying products
offered under more than one brand
name. In addition, the question
concerning handsets capable of Wi-Fi
voice operation will be expanded to
include handsets capable of voice
communication over any air interface or
frequency band for which hearing aid
compatibility technical standards do not
exist without changes to the hardware
in the handset. As a result, the
Commission is requesting a revision of
this currently approved collection due
to the new disclosure requirements
under Section 20.19(f) of the
Commission’s rules as well as the two
fields changed on FCC Form 655.

The updated disclosures will create
no additional burden for manufacturers
and service providers, but will ensure
that consumers and the Commission are
provided with consistent and sufficient
information about the functionality and
the limitations of offered handsets.
These actions are taken to ensure that
consumers who use hearing aids and
cochlear implants have access to a
variety of phones and are adequately
informed about the functionality and
the limitations of the handsets, while
preserving competitive opportunities for
small companies as well as
opportunities for innovations and
investment. Similarly, the additional
fields on the FCC Form 655 will clarify
the responses already required by the
form, helping the Commission compile
data and monitor compliance with the
hearing aid compatibility rules.
