Body-worn measurements differ among wireless device and phone models, depending upon
available accessories and FCC, IC, and The Council of the European Union requirements.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this wireless device model with all reported
SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC radio frequency emission guidelines when the
BlackBerry smartphone is used as directed in this section. SAR information on this wireless device
model is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
after searching for the FCC ID for your BlackBerry smartphone listed below.

* 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.

FCC compliance statement (United States)
FCC Class B Part 15
This device complies with Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
• This device may not cause harmful interference.
• This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
CAUTION:
Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions, may cause interference harmful to radio communications.
There is no guarantee, however, that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning on and turning off the equipment, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or TV technician for help.
US Information Concerning the Federal Communications
Commission ("FCC") Requirements for Hearing Aid
Compatibility with Wireless Devices
When wireless devices are used near hearing devices (such as hearing aids and cochlear implants),
users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune
than others to this interference, and wireless devices also vary in the amount of interference that
they generate.
The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings to assist hearing device users in finding
wireless devices that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all wireless devices have
been rated. Wireless devices that are rated will have the rating displayed on the box together with
other relevant approval markings.
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 BlackBerry smartphone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the
wireless technologies that the BlackBerry smartphone uses. However, other wireless technologies
may be used in this BlackBerry smartphone that have not been tested for use with hearing aids. It is
important to try the different features of your BlackBerry smartphone thoroughly and in different
locations to determine if you hear any interfering noise when using this BlackBerry 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.

compatibility with wireless devices and other steps that the FCC has taken to ensure that individuals
with disabilities have access to telecommunications services, visit
