BlackBerry Wireless Handheld

Important safety information

Other Medical Devices

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

Turn your handheld 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.

Posted Facilities

Turn your handheld radio OFF in any facility where posted notices
so require.

BLASTING AREAS

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn the wireless
feature of your handheld OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas
posted: “Turn off two-way radio”. Obey all signs and instructions.

POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES

Turn your handheld radio OFF when in any area with a potentially
explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in
such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury
or even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not
always, clearly marked. They include fueling areas such as
gasoline/petrol stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical
transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas
(such as propane or butane); areas where the air contains chemicals
or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other
area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle
engine.
