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. 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

• 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)

• MIC, 2001, Article 14-2 of the Ordinance for Regulating Radio Equipment
