BlackBerry Smart Card Reader

Safety and Product Information

Read these safety and operation instructions before using the
BlackBerry Smart Card Reader™ or any accessories provided with
the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader. Retain these instructions for
future use.

In some countries there may be restrictions on using Bluetooth®
enabled devices. Check with your local authorities.

Electrical safety

Charge the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader using only the USB cable
provided or accessory specifically approved by Research In Motion®
(RIM®) for use with this BlackBerry Smart Card Reader. Any
approval from RIM under this document must be in writing and
must be from a person authorized to provide such approval. Use of
any other accessory will invalidate any warranty provided with the
BlackBerry Smart Card Reader and might be dangerous.

Use the charging accessories provided with the BlackBerry Smart
Card Reader or any other approved charging accessories only from
the type of power source indicated on the marking label. Before
using any power supply, verify that the mains voltage is in
accordance with the voltage printed on the power supply.

Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or convenience
receptacles as this might result in a risk of fire or electric shock. To
reduce the risk of damage to the cord or the plug, pull the plug
rather than the cord when you disconnect the charging accessory
from the wall outlet or convenience receptacle.

Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched
particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where
the power cord connects to the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader.
Unplug charging accessories during lightning storms or when
unused for long periods of time.

Do not use charging accessories outside or in any area exposed to
the elements.

See the documentation that came with the BlackBerry Smart Card
Reader for more information about inserting the battery and
connecting the power supply.

Battery safety and disposal

The BlackBerry Smart Card Reader contains a removable lithium-ion
battery. Do not dispose of either the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader
or the lithium battery in a fire. Dispose of the lithium battery in
accordance with the laws and regulations in your area governing
disposal of such cell types.

The battery might present a fire or chemical burn hazard if
mistreated. Do not disassemble, crush, or puncture the battery. Do
not heat the battery above 60°C (140°F). Do not allow metal
objects to contact the battery terminals.

Use only the battery that RIM specifies for use with your particular
BlackBerry Smart Card Reader model. Using any other battery will
invalidate any warranty provided with the BlackBerry Smart Card
Reader and might present a risk of fire or explosion.

The battery cover is intended only for occasional use by the
OPERATOR for the installation of battery. The BlackBerry Smart
Card Reader documentation includes directions for correct removal
and reinstallation of the cover.

Driving safety

Check the laws and regulations regarding the use of wireless
BlackBerry Smart Card Readers in the areas where you drive. Always
obey them.

Do not use the features of the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader while
driving. Have a passenger in the vehicle use the BlackBerry Smart
Card Reader for you, or find a safe location to stop your vehicle prior
to using the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader.

Store the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader safely before driving your
vehicle. Do not use any charging accessory as a means of storing
the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader while you are in a vehicle. If your
vehicle is equipped with an air bag, do not place the BlackBerry
Smart Card Reader or other objects above the air bag, or in the air
bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly
stored or installed, and the air bag inflates, serious injury could
result.

Radio frequency (RF) signals might affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check
with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. If
any equipment has been added to your vehicle, you should also
consult the manufacturer of that equipment for information on RF
signals.

Accessories

Use only those accessories approved by RIM. Using any accessories
not approved by RIM for use with this particular BlackBerry Smart
Card Reader model will invalidate any approval or warranty
applicable to the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader and might be
dangerous.

Antenna care

Use only the supplied integral antenna. Unauthorized antenna
modifications, or attachments could damage the BlackBerry Smart
Card Reader and might violate Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) regulations.

Operating and storage temperatures

Situate the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader or BlackBerry Smart Card
Reader accessories away from heat sources, such as radiators, heat
registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that
produce heat.

Interference with electronic equipment

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals.
However, certain electronic equipment might not be shielded
against the RF signals from the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader.

Pacemakers: Consult a physician or the manufacturer of your
pacemaker if you have any questions regarding the effect of RF
signals on your pacemaker. If you have a pacemaker, verify that you
are using the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader in accordance with the
safety requirements associated with your particular pacemaker,
which might include the following requirements:

• Always keep the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader more than 7
inches (20 cm) from the pacemaker when the BlackBerry
Smart Card Reader is turned on.

• Do not carry the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader in your breast
pocket.

• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking
place, turn the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader radio off
immediately.

Hearing aids: Some digital wireless devices may interfere with some
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, consult your service
provider or contact the manufacturer of your hearing aid to discuss
alternatives.

Other medical devices: If you use any other personal medical device,
consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is
adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be
able to assist you in obtaining this information.

Health care facilities: Turn the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader radio
off in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these
areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be
using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.

Aircraft: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and FCC regulations
prohibit using the radio of the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader while
in the air. Turn the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader radio off before
boarding an aircraft. The effect of using the BlackBerry Smart Card
Reader radio in an aircraft is unknown. Such use might affect
aircraft instrumentation, communication and performance, might
disrupt the network, might other wise be dangerous to the operation
of the aircraft, and might be illegal. Use any other BlackBerry Smart
Card Reader applications in accordance with airline regulations for
electronic devices.
