soft dry cloth. Disconnect any cables from the computer and unplug any charging accessories from the electrical outlet
before cleaning either the device or the charging accessory.

Compliance information

Exposure to radio frequency signals

The BlackBerry device is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When the device radio is on, it receives and also
sends out RF signals. The device complies with U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Industry Canada (IC),
and European Union (EU) guidelines respecting safety levels of RF exposure for wireless devices, which in turn are
consistent with the following safety standards previously set by Canadian, U.S., and international standards bodies:
• ANSI/IEEE C95.1, 1999, IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency
Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz
• National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) Report 86, 1986, Biological Effects and
Exposure Criteria for Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields
• Health Canada, Safety Code 6, 1999, Limits of Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields in the
Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz
• EN 50360, 2001, Product standard to demonstrate the compliance of mobile phones with the basic restrictions
related to human exposure to electromagnetic fields (300 MHz to 3 GHz)
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), 1998, Guidelines for limiting exposure to
time-varying electric, magnetic, and electromagnetic fields (up to 300 GHz)
• Official Journal of the European Union, 1999, Council Recommendation of 12 July 1999 on the limitation of
exposure of the general public to electromagnetic fields (0 Hz to 300 GHz)
To maintain compliance with FCC, IC, and EU RF exposure guidelines when carrying the device on your body, use only
RIM-supplied or approved accessories. Use of accessories that are not approved by RIM might violate FCC, IC, and EU
RF exposure guidelines and might void any warranty applicable to the device. When carrying the device while the radio
is on, use the specific RIM-approved holster that has been tested for compliance. For data operation (when you do not
use a body-worn accessory and are not holding the device at the ear), position the device at least 15mm (0.60 inches)
from the body.

Specific absorption rate data

THIS WIRELESS DEVICE MODEL MEETS GOVERNMENT REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
The BlackBerry device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission
limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S.
Government, Industry Canada of the Canadian Government (IC), and recommended by The Council of the European
Union. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general
population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or
SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC/IC is 1.6W/kg*. The SAR limit recommended by The Council of the European Union
is 2.0W/kg**. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the FCC/IC with the device
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the
highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value.
This is because the device is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach
the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.
