Important safety precautions
Before you use your BlackBerry® device, it is important that you read the compliance information and the guidelines for the safe use of your BlackBerry device that are found in this guide. To find the latest safety and product information, visit www.blackberry.com/docs/ smartphones.
Use only approved batteries with your BlackBerry device. Use of batteries that have not been approved by Research In Motion might present a risk of fire or explosion, which could cause serious harm, death, or property loss.
Use only RIM approved holsters. Use of holsters that have not been approved by RIM might, in the long term, present a risk of serious harm.
Use only RIM approved chargers. Use of chargers that have not been approved by RIM might present a risk of fire or explosion, which could cause serious harm, death, or property loss.
When you wear the BlackBerry device close to your body, use a RIM approved holster with an integrated belt clip or maintain a distance of 0.98 in. (25 mm) between your BlackBerry device and your body while the BlackBerry device is transmitting. Use of bodyworn accessories, other than RIM approved holsters with an integrated belt clip, might cause your BlackBerry device to exceed radio frequency (RF) exposure standards if the accessories are worn on your body while the BlackBerry device is transmitting. The long term effects of exceeding RF exposure standards might present a risk of serious harm. For more information about the compliance of this BlackBerry device with the FCC RF emission guidelines, visit www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid and search for the FCC ID for your BlackBerry device as listed below:
•BlackBerry® Storm2™ 9520 smartphone: FCC ID L6ARCP50UW
•BlackBerry® Storm2™ 9550 smartphone: FCC ID L6ARCK70CW
3
Do not rely on your BlackBerry device for emergency communications. The wireless networks that are necessary to make emergency calls or send messages are not available in all areas, and emergency numbers (such as 911, 112, or 999) might not connect you to emergency services in all areas. If you have the BlackBerry® Mobile Voice System installed on your BlackBerry device, see the "About emergency calls and the BlackBerry Mobile Voice System" section for more information about emergency calls.
Do not disassemble your BlackBerry device. Your BlackBerry device contains small parts that might be a choking hazard.
Keep your BlackBerry device away from medical devices, including pacemakers and hearing aids, as they might malfunction causing serious harm or death to you or others.
Do not put your BlackBerry device in contact with liquids as this might cause a short circuit, a fire, or an electric shock.
When you use your BlackBerry device speakerphone, never hold the BlackBerry device to your ear. Serious and permanent hearing damage could occur.
Exposure to flashing lights on the BlackBerry device can cause epileptic seizures or blackouts and might be dangerous to you or others. If you are susceptible to epileptic seizures or blackouts, consult your physician before you use the BlackBerry device.
Do not use your BlackBerry device while driving unless you are permitted by law to use the BlackBerry device in hands-free mode. Using your BlackBerry device while driving could put you and others at greater risk of an accident causing serious injury, death, or property loss.
Do not use your BlackBerry device in the presence of gas fumes as it might present a risk of fire or explosion.
Do not use or store your BlackBerry device in temperatures that exceed 104° F (40°C) as the BlackBerry device might become hot.
4
Do not dispose of your BlackBerry device in a fire as this might cause an explosion resulting in serious injury, death, or property loss.
Turn off your BlackBerry device in aircrafts. Using your BlackBerry device on an aircraft might affect aircraft instrumentation, communication, and performance; might disrupt the network; might otherwise be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, its crew, and its passengers; and might be illegal.
BlackBerry devices are not inherently safe and cannot be used in the presence of explosive fumes, explosive dust, or other explosive chemicals. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in serious injury, death, or damage to property.

Use the charging accessories provided with the BlackBerry device or any other RIM approved charging accessories only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. Before you use any power supply, verify that the mains voltage is in accordance with the voltage printed on the power supply. Connect the BlackBerry device only to products that bear the USB-IF logo or have completed the USB-IF compliance program.
Do not overload power 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 power 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 device. 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.
For more information about inserting the lithium-ion battery and connecting the power supply, see the documentation that came with the BlackBerry device.
To buy accessories for your BlackBerry device, contact your wireless service provider or visit www.shopblackberry.com.
Battery safety and disposal
The BlackBerry® device contains a removable lithium-ion battery. Do not dispose of either the BlackBerry device or the lithium-ion battery in a fire. Dispose of the lithium-ion battery in accordance with the laws and regulations in your area governing disposal of such cell types.

The lithium-ion battery might present a fire or chemical burn hazard if mistreated. Do not disassemble, crush, or puncture the lithium-ion battery. Do not heat the lithium-ion battery above 140°F (60°C). Do not allow metal objects to contact the battery terminals.
Use only the lithium-ion battery that Research In Motion specifies for use with your particular BlackBerry device model. RIM specifies lithium-ion batteries for use in BlackBerry devices in compliance with IEEE® Std 1725™-200x. Using any other lithium-ion battery might invalidate any warranty provided with the BlackBerry device and might present a risk of fire or explosion.
Children should not handle batteries unless they are supervised by an adult.
When this icon appears on your BlackBerry device, the lithium-ion battery is not inserted correctly or an invalid lithium-ion battery is inserted. If you inserted the lithium-ion battery that is specified for use with your particular BlackBerry device model, remove and reinsert the lithium-ion battery. If you
inserted an invalid lithium-ion battery, remove it immediately and insert the lithium-ion battery that RIM specifies for use with your particular BlackBerry device model. Verify that the battery connectors align with the connectors on your BlackBerry device.
Device disposal
The BlackBerry® device should not be placed in household waste bins. Please check local regulations for information about the disposal of electronic products in your area.

Driving and walking safely
Give your full attention to driving; driving safely is your first responsibility. You are responsible for knowing and obeying the laws and regulations regarding the use of wireless devices in the areas where you drive.
Research In Motion recommends that you do not use your BlackBerry® device while you drive. Instead, consider having a passenger in the vehicle use your BlackBerry device for you, or find a safe location to stop your vehicle before you use your BlackBerry device.
Store your BlackBerry device safely before driving your vehicle. Do not use any charging accessory as a means of storing your BlackBerry device while you are in a vehicle. If your vehicle is equipped with an air bag, do not place your BlackBerry device 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.
Do not use your BlackBerry device while walking or engaging in any activity that requires your full attention. Inattention to vehicular traffic or other pedestrian hazards could result in serious injury, death, or property loss.
Accessories
Use only those accessories approved by Research In Motion (RIM). Using any accessories not approved by RIM for use with this particular BlackBerry® device model might invalidate any approval or warranty applicable to the device, might result in the non-operation of the device, and might be dangerous.
Antenna care
Use only the supplied integrated antenna. Unauthorized antenna modifications or attachments could damage the BlackBerry® device and might violate U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulations.
