exposure for handheld 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, IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with
Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency
Electromagnetic Fields, 3kHz to 300 GHz
•
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements
(NCRP) Report 86, -1986, Biological Effects and Exposure
Criteria for Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields
•
Health Canada, Safety Code 6, 1999, Limits of Human Exposure
to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields in the Frequency

SPECIFIC ABSORPTION RATE DATA
THIS MODEL WIRELESS HANDHELD MEETS GOVERNMENT
REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
12
BlackBerry Wireless Handheld
Important safety/compliance information
Your wireless handheld 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 and
Industry Canada of the Canadian Government (IC). 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 standards include a substantial safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and
health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile handhelds 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.* Tests for SAR are
conducted using standard operating positions specified by the
FCC/IC with the handheld 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 handheld while operating can be well below the maximum
value. This is because the handheld 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 handheld model is available for sale to the public,
it must be tested and certified to the FCC/IC that it does not exceed
the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for
safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations
(e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC/IC for
each model. The highest SAR value for this model handheld when
tested for use at the ear is 1.46 W/kg (for model R6120CN) and 1.45
W/kg (for model RAN20CN) and when worn on the body, as
described in this user guide, is 0.61 W/kg (for model R6120CN) and
0.56 W/kg (for model RAN20CN). (Body-worn measurements differ
among wireless handheld and phone models, depending upon
Getting Started Guide
13
Important safety information
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 L6AR6120CN and L6ARAN20CN.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be
found on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association
(CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com.com.
___________________________________
* 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.
The long-term characteristics or the possible physiological effects of
Radio Frequency Electromagnetic fields have not been evaluated by
Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL).
ANTENNA CARE
Use only the supplied integral antenna. Unauthorized antenna,
modifications, or attachments could damage the handheld and may
violate FCC regulations.
14
BlackBerry Wireless Handheld
FCC compliance statement (USA)
EFFICIENT USE
Even though this handheld demonstrates compliance with FCC RF
exposure requirements, RIM recommends minimizing contact with
the left side of the BlackBerry 6750 Wireless Handheld where the
transmit antenna is located. Minimizing contact to this area will also
improve call quality, and reduce transmit power, effectively
conserving battery life.
AIRCRAFT SAFETY
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)/FCC regulations prohibit
using the radio of your handheld while in the air. Switch the radio of
your handheld radio OFF before boarding an aircraft. The effect of
the use of your handheld’s radio in an aircraft is unknown. Such use
may affect aircraft instrumentation, communication and
performance, may disrupt the network, may otherwise be
dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, and may be illegal. All
other applications of your handheld may be used in accordance
with airline regulations for electronic devices.

might not be available on your handheld. As a result, the headset might
not be included in your package. Contact your service provider or
network operator for more information on available applications.
Holster
A holster, equipped with a clip, accompanies your handheld. While
your handheld is in the holster, it is wearable. You can choose
different forms of notification based on whether your handheld is in
or out of the holster. Refer to the Handheld User Guide for more
information on editing notification profiles.
