Important safety information
16 BlackBerry Wireless Handheld
tested for use at the ear is 0.919 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in
this user guide, is 0.491 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among wireless
handheld and phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC/IC
requirements). While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various
wireless devices and at various positions, they all meet the government
requirement for safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model handheld with
all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission
guidelines. SAR information on this model handheld 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 L6AR6510IN.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the
Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) web site at http://

The long-term characteristics or the possible physiological effects of Radio
Frequency Electromagnetic fields have not been evaluated by UL.
___________________________________
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile handhelds used by
the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one 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.
ANTENNA CARE
Use only the supplied integral antenna. Unauthorized antenna modifications or
attachments could damage the handheld and may violate applicable laws and
regulations by causing radio frequency (RF) energy to be above the recommended
limits. Any such unauthorized use, modification or attachment will invalidate the
warranty provided with the handheld and may be dangerous.
If the external antenna components have been damaged in any way, refer the
handheld for service to qualified service personnel. Operation with a damaged
antenna could damage the handheld and may result in dangerous usage
conditions.
