Electric, Magnetic, and Electromagnetic fields (up to 300 GHz)

Recommendation of 12 July 1999 on the limitation of exposure of
the general public to electromagnetic fields (0 Hz to 300 GHz)
• MIC, 2001, Article 14-2 of the Ordinance for Regulating Radio
Equipment
To maintain compliance with FCC, IC, MIC, and EU radio frequency
exposure guidelines when you carry the BlackBerry device on your body,
use only accessories equipped with an integrated belt clip that are supplied
or approved by Research In Motion. Use of accessories that are not
expressly approved by RIM might violate FCC, IC, and EU radio frequency
exposure guidelines and might void any warranty applicable to the
BlackBerry device. If you do not use a body-worn accessory equipped with
an integrated belt clip supplied or approved by RIM when you carry the
BlackBerry device, keep the BlackBerry device at least 0.59 in. (15 mm)
from your body when the BlackBerry device is transmitting. When using any
data feature of the BlackBerry device, with or without a USB cable, hold the
BlackBerry device at least 0.59 in. (15 mm) from your body. If you use a
body-worn accessory not supplied by RIM when you carry the BlackBerry
device, verify that the accessory does not contain metal and keep the
BlackBerry device at least 0.59 in. (15 mm) from your body when the
BlackBerry device is transmitting.
