Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where the power cord connects to the BlackBerry device. Unplug charging accessories during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time. Do not use charging accessories outside or in any area exposed to the elements. For more information about inserting the lithium-ion battery and connecting the power supply, see the documentation that came with the BlackBerry device.
Use only the lithium-ion battery that Research In Motion (RIM) specifies for use with your particular BlackBerry device model. RIM specifies lithium-ion batteries for use in BlackBerry devices in compliance with IEEE Std 1725™-200x. Using any other lithium-ion battery might invalidate any warranty provided with the BlackBerry device and might present a risk of fire or explosion. Battery usage by children should be supervised.

Antenna care Use only the supplied integrated antenna. Unauthorized antenna modifications or attachments could damage the BlackBerry® device and might violate U.S.
Travel charger storage -22 to 167°F (-30 to 75°C) Interference with electronic equipment Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals. However, certain electronic equipment might not be shielded against the RF signals from the BlackBerry® device. Pacemakers: Consult a physician or the manufacturer of your pacemaker if you have any questions regarding the effect of RF signals on your pacemaker.
Other medical devices: If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if the device is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. Health care facilities: Turn off all wireless connections on the BlackBerry device in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fueling areas such as gasoline or petrol stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
• the BlackBerry device or charging accessory does not operate normally by following the instructions in the user documentation • the BlackBerry device or charging accessory exhibits a distinct change in performance Do not attempt to disassemble the BlackBerry device or any charging accessory. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, adjust only those controls that are covered in the user documentation for the BlackBerry device.
modifying, transferring, or forwarding some pictures, music (including ring tones), or other content. Do not aim the camera directly at the sun or any other bright light.

Cleaning: Do not use liquid, aerosol cleaners, or solvents on or near the BlackBerry device or device accessory. Clean only with a soft dry cloth. Disconnect any cables from the computer and unplug any charging accessories from the electrical outlet before cleaning either the BlackBerry device or the charging accessory. Repetitive strain: When using the BlackBerry device, take frequent breaks.
Compliance information Exposure to radio frequency signals The BlackBerry® device radio is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When the BlackBerry device radio is turned on, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.
• 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 (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 RF expo
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 highest SAR value for each device model when tested for use at the ear is outlined below: Device 1 g / 10 g SAR (W/kg) BlackBerry® 8220 smartphone 1.15/0.66 The highest SAR value for the BlackBerry device model when worn on the body, in a holster approved by RIM, and keeping the device 0.98 inches (25mm) from the body, is outlined below: Device 1 g / 10 g SAR (W/kg) BlackBerry 8220 smartphone 1.18 /0.
* 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/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.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, may cause interference harmful to radio communications.
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.
Industry Canada certification This BlackBerry® device complies with Industry Canada RSS 102, RSS 132, RSS 133, RSS-GEN, and RSS 210, under certification number 2503A-RBV70UW 2503A-RBY40GW. Class B compliance This BlackBerry® device complies with the Class B limits for radio noise emissions as set out in the interference-causing equipment standard entitled “Digital Apparatus,” ICES-003 of Industry Canada.
200 Bath Road, Slough, Berkshire SL1 3XE United Kingdom This equipment may be operated in all European Union member countries. When operated in France, this equipment uses non harmonized frequency bands. In France, outdoor operation of a wireless device is only permitted using the 2.4 to 2.454 GHz frequency band. The BlackBerry device only operates in infrastructure mode and as a result, will not transmit in the 2.4 to 2.45 GHz frequency band other than to communicate with a wireless access point.
