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. The BlackBerry device 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 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, 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, 1999, Limits of Human Exposure to

Radiofrequency 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)
