Compliance information
Exposure to radio frequency signals
The BlackBerry® smartphone radio is a low power radio transmitter
and receiver. When the BlackBerry smartphone radio is turned on, it
receives and also sends out radio frequency signals. The BlackBerry
smartphone is designed to comply with Federal Communications
Commission (FCC), Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications
(MIC), and Industry Canada (IC) guidelines respecting safety levels of
radio frequency 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, 2005, American National Standards
Institute/Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
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 Radiofrequency Electromagnetic
Fields
• Health Canada, Safety Code 6, 2009, Limits of Human
Exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields in the
Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz
27
• 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), 2009, Guidelines for Limiting Exposure
to Time-Varying Electric, Magnetic, and Electromagnetic
fields (up to 300 GHz)
• Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU), 1999,
Council Recommendation of 12 July 1999 on the limitation
of exposure of the general public to electromagnetic fields
(0 Hz to 300 GHz)
• MIC, 2001, Article 14-2 of the Ordinance for Regulating
Radio Equipment
To maintain compliance with FCC, IC, MIC, and EU radio frequency
exposure guidelines when you carry the BlackBerry smartphone on
your body, use only accessories equipped with an integrated belt
clip that are supplied or approved by Research In Motion. Use of
accessories that are not expressly approved by RIM might violate
FCC, IC, and EU radio frequency exposure guidelines and might void
any warranty applicable to the BlackBerry smartphone. If you do not
use a body-worn accessory equipped with an integrated belt clip
supplied or approved by RIM when you carry the BlackBerry
smartphone, keep the BlackBerry smartphone at least 0.59 in. (15
mm) from your body when the BlackBerry smartphone is
transmitting. When using any data feature of the BlackBerry
smartphone, with or without a USB cable, hold the BlackBerry
28
smartphone at least 0.59 in. (15 mm) from your body. If you use a
body-worn accessory not supplied by RIM when you carry the
BlackBerry smartphone, verify that the accessory does not contain
metal and keep the BlackBerry smartphone at least 0.59 in. (15 mm)
from your body when the BlackBerry smartphone is transmitting.
To reduce radio frequency exposure consider these safety
guidelines:
• Use the BlackBerry smartphone in areas where there is a
strong wireless signal. The indicator that provides
information about the strength of the wireless signal is
located in the upper-right corner of the home screen and
displays five ascending bars. Three or more bars indicate a
strong signal. A reduced signal display, which might occur
in areas such as an underground parking structure or if you
are traveling by train or car, might indicate increased power
output from your BlackBerry smartphone as it attempts to
connect to a weak signal.
• Use hands-free operation if it is available and keep the
BlackBerry smartphone at least 0.59 in. (15 mm) from your
body (including the abdomen of pregnant women and the
lower abdomen of teenagers) when the BlackBerry
smartphone is turned on and connected to the wireless
network. For more information about carrying your
BlackBerry smartphone, see the holster information in the
"Accessories" section of this document.
• Reduce the amount of time spent on calls.

Specific absorption rate data
THIS WIRELESS DEVICE MODEL MEETS GOVERNMENT
REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES WHEN USED
AS DIRECTED IN THIS SECTION.
The BlackBerry® smartphone 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 when used as
directed in the previous section. 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 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
30
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

* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile devices
used by the public is 1.6W/kg averaged over 1 g of tissue for the
body or head (4.0W/kg averaged over 10 g of tissue for the
extremities - hands, wrists, ankles, and feet).
** In Europe, the SAR limit for mobile devices used by the public is
2.0W/kg averaged over 10 g of tissue for the body or head (4.0W/kg
averaged over 10 g of tissue for the extremities - hands, wrists,
ankles, and feet). Studies suggest that the standard incorporates a
substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the
public and to account for any variations in measurements.

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 hearing devices are more immune
than others to this interference, and wireless devices also vary in the
amount of interference that 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 the 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.
35
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.
This BlackBerry® smartphone has been tested and rated for use
with hearing aids for some of the wireless technologies that the
BlackBerry smartphone uses. However, other wireless technologies
may be used in this BlackBerry smartphone that have not been
tested for use with hearing aids. It is important to try the different
features of your BlackBerry smartphone thoroughly and in different
locations to determine if you hear any interfering noise when using
this BlackBerry smartphone with your hearing aid or cochlear
implant. Consult your wireless service provider about its return and
exchange policies and for information about hearing aid
compatibility.
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
or 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 or higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing
devices have telecoils in them.)
36
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 for your hearing device. The
more immune your hearing aid is, the less likely you are to
experience interference noise from wireless devices.
For more information about the actions that the FCC has taken with
regard to hearing aid compatibility with wireless devices and other
steps that the FCC has taken to ensure that individuals with
disabilities have access to telecommunications services, visit
www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro.

If you have a Wi-Fi® enabled BlackBerry smartphone, your
BlackBerry smartphone may be operated on Wi-Fi networks in all
European Union member countries. If you have a Wi-Fi enabled
BlackBerry smartphone, in France, outdoor operation of a wireless
device is only permitted using the 2.4 to 2.454 GHz frequency band.
If your BlackBerry smartphone operates in infrastructure mode as
well as in Mobile Hotspot/wireless access point mode, it will transmit
in the 2.4 to 2.454 GHz frequency band. This equipment may be
operated in Turkey.
The Official Journal of the European Union Commission Decision of
12 February 2007 states that in the frequency band 5.150 to 5.350
GHz, wireless access systems (WAS), including radio local area
39
networks (RLANs), shall be restricted to indoor use. Since the
creation of a network is within the domain of the wireless access
point and the access point is a master device, the BlackBerry
smartphone never initiates the creation of a network or attaches to a
network in ad-hoc mode in the 5.150 to 5.350 GHz frequency band.
