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
