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.
17
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.
Before a wireless device model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested
and certified to the FCC, IC, and The Council of the European Union that it does not
exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe
exposure under the recommendations of the International Commission on Non-
Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). The tests are performed in positions and
locations (for example, at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC, IC,
and The Council of the European Union for each model.
The highest SAR value for each device model when tested for use at the ear is outlined
below:
18
Device 1 g / 10 g SAR (W/kg)
BlackBerry® 8310 smartphone 1.09/0.59
The highest SAR value for the BlackBerry device model when worn on the body, in a
RIM approved holder, holster, or carrying case, is outlined below:
Device 1 g / 10 g SAR (W/kg)
BlackBerry 8310 smartphone 1.11/0.63
Body-worn measurements differ among wireless device and phone models,
depending upon available accessories and FCC, IC, and The Council of the European
Union requirements.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this wireless device model with
all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission
guidelines. SAR information on this wireless device model is on file with the FCC and
can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after
searching on FCC ID L6ARBN40GW. Additional information on Specific Absorption
Rates (SAR) can be found on the CTIA - The Wireless Association® web-site at http://
www.ctia.org.
___________________________________
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile devices used by the public
is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over 1 gram of tissue for the body or head (4.0 W/
19
kg averaged over 10 grams of tissue for the extremities - hands, wrists, ankles and
feet). The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional
protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.
** In Europe, the SAR limit for mobile devices used by the public is 2.0 watts/kg (W/
kg) averaged over 10 grams of tissue for the body or head (4.0 W/kg averaged over
10 grams of tissue for the extremities - hands, wrists, ankles and feet). The standard
incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public
and to account for any variations in measurements.
The long-term characteristics or the possible physiological effects of Radio Frequency
Electromagnetic fields have not been evaluated by Underwriters Laboratories Inc.
(UL).

US Information Concerning the Federal Communications
Commission ("FCC") Requirements for Hearing Aid
Compatibility with Wireless Devices
When wireless devices are used near hearing devices (such as hearing aids and
cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some
21
hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference, and wireless
devices also vary in the amount of interference they generate.
The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings to assist hearing device users
in finding wireless devices that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not
all wireless devices have been rated. Wireless devices that are rated will have the
rating displayed on their box together with other relevant approval markings.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user's hearing
device and hearing loss. If your hearing device is vulnerable to interference, you may
not be able to use a rated wireless device successfully.
Consulting with your hearing health professional and testing the wireless device with
your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs.
How the ratings work
M-Ratings: Wireless devices rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely
to generate less interference to hearing devices than wireless devices that are not
labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
T-Ratings: Wireless devices rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to
be more usable with a hearing device's telecoil ("T Switch" or "Telephone Switch")
than unrated wireless devices. T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. (Note that
not all hearing devices have telecoils in them.)
Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this type of interference. Your
hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find results
22
for your hearing device. The more immune your hearing aid is, the less likely you are
to experience interference noise from wireless devices.
For additional information about the FCC's actions with regard to hearing aid
compatible wireless devices and other steps the FCC has taken to ensure that
individuals with disabilities have access to telecommunications services, please go
