Compliance information
Exposure to radio frequency signals
The smartphone radio is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed to comply with
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and The Council of the European Union guidelines and
limits, as well as other relevant international guidelines regarding safety levels of radio frequency
exposure for wireless devices. These guidelines were developed by independent scientific experts,
governments, and organizations including the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Standard
(IEEE), National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) and International
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP).
To maintain compliance with FCC, EU, and other relevant international radio frequency exposure
guidelines and limits, keep the smartphone at least 0.59 in. (1.5 cm) away from your body. When you
carry the smartphone on your body, use only accessories equipped with an integrated belt clip that are
supplied or approved by BlackBerry. If you use a body-worn accessory not supplied by BlackBerry,
verify that the accessory does not contain metal and keep the smartphone at least 0.59 in. (1.5 c m)
from your body.
To reduce radio frequency exposure: (i) use the smartphone in areas where there is a strong wireless
signal; (ii) use hands-free options; and (iii) reduce the amount of time spent on calls, or send an email,
text message, or BBM message instead.
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.
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 smartphone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the wireless
technologies that the smartphone uses. However, other wireless technologies may be used in this
smartphone that have not been tested for use with hearing aids. It is important to try the different
features of your smartphone thoroughly and in different locations to determine if you hear any interfering
noise when using this 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.)
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.

Specific absorption rate data
THIS WIRELESS DEVICE MODEL MEETS GOVERNMENT REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO
RADIO WAVES WHEN USED AS DIRECTED IN THIS SECTION.
The smartphone 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 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 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 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 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.
The highest SAR value for this smartphone when tested for use at the ear is:

* 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.
