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 device
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 www.fcc.gov/oet/ea after searching for the FCC ID for your
BlackBerry device 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 device has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the wireless
technologies that the BlackBerry device uses. However, other wireless technologies may be used in this
BlackBerry device that have not been tested for use with hearing aids. It is important to try the different
features of your BlackBerry device thoroughly and in different locations to determine if you hear any
interfering noise when using this BlackBerry device 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.
For more information about the actions that the FCC has taken with regard to hearing aid compatibility with
wireless devices and other steps that the FCC has taken to ensure that individuals with disabilities have
access to telecommunications services, visit www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro.
Industry Canada certification
This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the
following conditions:
• This device may not cause interference.
• This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired
operation of the device.
The BlackBerry Z10 device (model number RFG81UW) complies with Industry Canada RSS 102, RSS 132,
RSS 133, RSS-GEN, and RSS 210 under certification number 2503A-RFG80UW.
The
BlackBerry device for operation in the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor use to reduce the
potential for harmful interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems.
The maximum antenna gain permitted for BlackBerry devices in the bands 5250-5350 MHz and
5470-5725 MHz shall comply with the EIRP limit.
The maximum antenna gain permitted for BlackBerry devices in the band 5725-5825 MHz shall comply
with the EIRP limits specified for point-to-point and non point-to-point operation as appropriate.
Be advised that high-power radars are allocated as primary users (i.e. priority users) of the bands
5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz and that these radars could cause interference and/or damage to
LE-LAN devices.
Class B compliance
This BlackBerry device complies with the Class B limits for radio noise emissions as set out in the
interference-causing equipment standard entitled “Information Technology Equipment (ITE) – Limits and
methods of measurement,” ICES-003 of Industry Canada.

If you have a Wi-Fi enabled BlackBerry device, your BlackBerry device may be operated on Wi-Fi networks
in all European Union member countries. This equipment may be operated in Turkey.
The Official Journal of the European Union Commission Decision of 12 February 2007 states that in the
frequency band 5.150 to 5.350 GHz, wireless access systems (WAS), including radio local area networks
(RLANs), shall be restricted to indoor use. Since the creation of a network is within the domain of the
wireless access point and the access point is a master device, the BlackBerry device never initiates the
creation of a network or attaches to a network in ad-hoc mode in the 5.150 to 5.350 GHz frequency band.
