Important safety/compliance information

EXPOSURE TO RADIO FREQUENCY SIGNALS

Your wireless handheld portable device is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. Your wireless handheld complies with U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Industry Canada (IC) guidelines respecting safety levels of RF exposure for handheld wireless devices, which in turn are consistent with the following safety standards previously set by Canadian, U.S., and international standards bodies:

  • ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1999, IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3kHz to 300 GHz
  • National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) Report 86, -1986, Biological Effects and Exposure Criteria for Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields
  • Health Canada, Safety Code 6, 1999, Limits of Human Exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields in the Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz

14 BlackBerry Wireless Handheld

- International Commission on Non-Ionising Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998, Guidelines for limiting exposure to time-varying electric, magnetic, and electromagnetic fields (up to 300 GHz)

To maintain compliance with FCC and IC RF exposure guidelines, use only RIM supplied or approved accessories. The RIM handheld is designed to be carried in an approved holster when carried on your body. When carrying the BlackBerry Wireless Handheld while switched on, use the specific RIM holster that has been tested for compliance. Use of non-RIM approved accessories may violate FCC and IC RF exposure guidelines and may void your warranty.

SPECIFIC ABSORPTION RATE DATA

THIS MODEL WIRELESS HANDHELD MEETS GOVERNMENT REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.

Your wireless handheld is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government and Industry Canada of the Canadian Government (IC). These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

The exposure standard for wireless mobile handhelds employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC/IC is 1.6W/kg.* Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the FCC/IC with the handheld transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the handheld while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the handheld is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.

Before a wireless handheld model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC/IC that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC/IC for each model. The highest SAR value for this model handheld when

Important safety information

tested for use at the ear is 0.919 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.491 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among wireless handheld and phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC/IC requirements). While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various wireless devices and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure.

The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model handheld with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR information on this model handheld is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID L6AR6510IN.

Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) web site at http://www.wow-com.com.

The long-term characteristics or the possible physiological effects of Radio Frequency Electromagnetic fields have not been evaluated by UL.

* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile handhelds used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue for the body or head (4.0 W/kg averaged over 10 grams of tissue for the extremities - hands, wrists, ankles and feet). The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.

ANTENNA CARE

Use only the supplied integral antenna. Unauthorized antenna modifications or attachments could damage the handheld and may violate applicable laws and regulations by causing radio frequency (RF) energy to be above the recommended limits. Any such unauthorized use, modification or attachment will invalidate the warranty provided with the handheld and may be dangerous.

If the external antenna components have been damaged in any way, refer the handheld for service to qualified service personnel. Operation with a damaged antenna could damage the handheld and may result in dangerous usage conditions.

AIRCRAFT

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)/FCC regulations prohibit using the radio of your handheld while in the air. Switch the radio of your handheld OFF before boarding an aircraft. The effect of the use of your handheld's radio in an aircraft is unknown. Such use may affect aircraft instrumentation, communication and performance, may disrupt the network, may otherwise be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, and may be illegal. All other applications of your handheld may be used in accordance with airline regulations for electronic devices.

Formatting your messages

Your handheld has features that can reduce your typing time. It also has an AutoText feature that automatically replaces certain text that you type with preprogrammed text.

Automatic capitalization

When you compose a message, you do not have to press a Shift key to capitalize letters; your handheld has two methods of capitalizing letters.

- When you type, the first letter that you type is capitalized automatically. When you type a period followed by a space, the next letter that you type is capitalized. Your handheld recognizes the beginning of a new sentence and capitalizes the letter for you. If you do not want the letter that follows a period to be capitalized, type the letter and then press the Backspace key. Type the letter again.

- If you want to capitalize any other letter, press and hold that letter until it is capitalized. For this feature to work, you must set the Key Rate option on the Screen/Keyboard screen to either Slow or Fast. Refer to "Screen/Keyboard" on page 236 for more information.

Automatic punctuation

To insert a period automatically at the end of a sentence or word, press the Space key twice. The next letter that you type is capitalized.

To insert a lowercase letter after a period, press the Backspace key and type the letter again. The letter appears in lowercase.

Email and PIN messages

Email and number fields

You can type an email address in an Email field without pressing the Alt key. When you type an email address, instead of pressing the Alt key and L to insert the at sign (@), press the Space key. When you press the Space key again, a period is inserted.

You can type numbers in the Work, Home, Mobile, Pager, Fax, DCID, and PIN fields without pressing the Alt key. To type a number in any of these fields, press the associated character key. For example, to display the number 4, press S. You can do this for all numbers, for parentheses, and for the -, +, * and . characters.

BLACKBERRY 6510 - Email and number fields - 1

Note: You can only type numbers and hexadecimal characters in the PIN field.

Number lock

You can activate number-lock (NUM-lock) mode to type numbers without pressing the Alt key. Press the Left Shift key and the Alt key. NUM-lock mode is activated and you can type numbers on any screen. Press the Alt key to turn off NUM-lock mode.

Using AutoText

The AutoText feature automatically replaces certain text that you type with preprogrammed text. You can configure the default AutoText entries and add new ones to meet your specific needs. You can use AutoText to automatically perform the following actions:

• compose frequently used phrases or messages with a few keystrokes
• correct commonly misspelled words
- replace abbreviations and acronyms with complete words
- insert phrases in a message by typing only one keyword
- insert punctuation and symbols in your message without using the Alt key or the symbols library

Frequently asked questions

Alarm

Why is my Alarm not notifying me?

  • Verify that the Alarm On/Off field is set to On. When the Alarm is set, a bell icon appears on the Home screen. Refer to "Setting the Alarm" on page 218 for more information.
  • Verify that the Alarm item is set correctly in your notification profile. The Volume field in your selected notification profile should be set to Low, Medium, High, or Escalating, instead of Mute. Refer to "Customizing notification profiles" on page 220 for more information.
  • If you turn off your handheld using the Power key or the Turn Power Off icon, Alarm notifications do not turn on the handheld. Set the handheld's Auto On/Off feature if you want your Alarm to notify you. Refer to "Setting the Auto On/Off feature" on page 229 for more information.

Attachment service

Why is my attachment not opening?

  • Verify that the attachment that you are opening is a supported attachment type. The attachment service supports attachments with .doc, .pdf, .txt, .wpd, .xls, and .ppt file extensions.
  • If you are opening a .pdf file that is password protected, verify that you typed the correct password.

How do I know if I need to type a password to view my attachment?

- The attachment service currently supports password-protected .pdf file attachments. If you try to view a password-protected .pdf file attachment and you do not type a password, the attachment request fails. An error message appears informing you that it is a password-protected attachment. Refer to "Opening attachments" on page 171 for more information.

I requested an attachment and an X icon appears where the check mark usually appears. What should I do?

- When an X appears beside a requested attachment, a problem prevented the attachment from being retrieved. Check the file name extension of the attachment that you are requesting to verify that it is a supported attachment type.

Why is my message marked as unread again?

- After you retrieve an attachment, the message that contains the attachment is marked as unread on the Messages screen. This indicates that the attachment is available for viewing. The message is marked as read after you open the message again.

246 BlackBerry Wireless Handheld

How do I save attachments?

- Your attachment is connected to your message. To save the attachment, you must save the message. Refer to "Saving messages" on page 73 for more information.

Battery

Why is my battery depleting quickly?

There are several reasons why your battery might deplete quickly. The following suggestions can help extend battery life:

  • Limit your use of the backlighting feature.
  • Enable the handheld's Auto On/Off feature to conserve the handheld's battery at night or on weekends. Refer to "Setting the Auto On/Off feature" on page 229 for more information.
  • If you are sending the same email message to more than one person, use multiple recipients in one message instead of transmitting the same message more than once. Refer to "To send a message to several contacts at one time" on page 41 for more information on composing an email message to multiple recipients.
  • Turn off your handheld's radio when you do not need to send or receive email and PIN messages, place phone calls or Nextel Direct Connect calls, browse web pages, receive SMS messages, or when you are in an area without wireless coverage for an extended period of time.

Integration with enterprise email account

If you have integrated your handheld with an enterprise email account that uses the BlackBerry Enterprise Server or the BlackBerry Desktop Redirector, set filter rules in the desktop software's Redirector Settings tool to specify which email messages should be forwarded to your handheld. Refer to the Redirector Settings Online Help for more information.

Integration with new or ISP email account

If you have integrated your handheld with a new or ISP email account or an enterprise email account that uses the BlackBerry Web Client, set filter rules in the BlackBerry Web Client to specify which email messages should be forwarded to your handheld. Refer to the BlackBerry Web Client Online Help for more information

What should I do if my handheld does not turn on?

Recharge your handheld's battery. Refer to the Getting Started Guide for more information on using and charging the battery.

If your handheld does not turn on after you recharge the battery, reset the handheld. Refer to "Maintenance" on page 249 for more information on resetting the handheld.

Why is my handheld not charging?

If you have installed the desktop software recently, the USB drivers might have been updated during the desktop software installation process. Disconnect your handheld from the desktop software and reconnect it.

Troubleshooting

Calendar

I am using wireless calendar synchronization and I deleted a meeting request from my handheld. Now the appointment is not on my handheld or in my desktop Calendar. Why are meeting requests being deleted from my handheld and desktop Calendars?

If you do not respond to a meeting request (either on your handheld or on your desktop) and you delete the meeting request from your handheld's Messages screen, the appointment is deleted and removed from both your handheld and desktop Calendars. To avoid inadvertently missing a meeting, always respond to meeting requests either on your desktop or from your handheld's Messages application.

Why is my handheld not synchronizing over the Nextel wireless network?

The BlackBerry Enterprise Server, not the desktop software, controls wireless calendar synchronization. To synchronize your handheld Calendar over the Nextel wireless network, verify that you are enabled on a BlackBerry Enterprise Server version 2.1 or later. Contact your system administrator for more information.

Integration with enterprise email account

If you use the BlackBerry Desktop Redirector for Microsoft Exchange to forward your email messages, you cannot configure your handheld Calendar for wireless calendar synchronization.

Home screen

How do I return to the Home screen?

The screen that displays the applications icons and the date and time is called the Home screen. Press the Escape button to close application screens and return to the Home screen.

You can also select Close from an application menu or, on the Options screen, click [Return to Home Screen].

LCD screen

What can I do if my LCD screen seems faint?

If you are operating your handheld in low light conditions, use the backlighting feature. While the handheld is on, press the Power button to activate backlighting. Backlighting turns off after ten seconds if you do not press a key or use the trackwheel. You can turn off the backlighting manually by pressing the Power button again.

The handheld's backlighting turns on automatically when you receive an incoming phone call.

If your screen seems faint all the time, check the Screen/Keyboard option on the Options screen. Refer to "Screen/Keyboard" on page 236 for more information on setting these fields.

Maintenance

I accidentally dropped my handheld in water and now it does not work. What should I do?

While a few drops of moisture should not damage your handheld, you should avoid placing it in direct contact with liquids. If your handheld is exposed to liquid and stops operating, let it dry out completely, allowing time for internal components to dry. If it does not begin to work again when it is dry, contact Nextel Customer Care.

How can I reset my handheld?

On rare occasions, the handheld might report an internal handheld error message, and instruct you to press R to reset. You can also reset the handheld by pressing the Alt key + the Shift key + the Backspace key.

Messages

What is a PIN?

PIN stands for personal identification number. Each handheld has a unique address that is similar to a phone number. PINs are up to eight digits long and cannot be modified.

To find the PIN for your handheld, on the Home screen, click the Options icon, and then click Status.

I sent a message and an X icon appears where the check mark usually appears. What should I do?

When an X appears beside a message that you sent from your handheld, a problem prevented the message from being sent properly. You can find out specifically what went wrong by opening the message and scrolling to the top of it. The Message Status field specifies the problem.

Refer to "Message status field error messages" on page 263 for more information.

Why am I not notified when new messages arrive?

Verify that the volume setting of the notification profile that you are using is set to Low, Medium, High, or Escalating instead of Mute. If the volume is set to Mute, you do not receive notification of new messages. If you are having difficulty hearing the notification, increase the volume or the number of beeps. Refer to "Customizing notification profiles" on page 220 for more information on changing your notification profile settings.

Why are new email messages on my handheld filed into an "Unknown" folder?

You must synchronize your email messages using the Intellisync tool to transfer a folder that you created on your desktop to your handheld. Refer to the “Reconciling email” topic of the Intellisync Online Help for more information. After you perform the email reconciliation, your handheld recognizes the new folder and any email messages that are redirected from that desktop folder on your desktop are transferred into the proper folder on your handheld.

Troubleshooting

If you have enabled wireless email reconciliation, your handheld recognizes when new folders are created on your desktop. Refer to "Using wireless email reconciliation" on page 72 for more information.

Why are new email messages on my handheld being marked as opened?

If you briefly remove your handheld from the holster to stop notification, a new message might be marked as opened. If you remove your handheld from the holster when you are notified of a new message, the new message is displayed on the screen. When you return your handheld to the holster, the message closes. Even if you did not actually read the message, your handheld might mark the message as opened.

If you have enabled wireless email reconciliation, your handheld recognizes when messages have been opened on your desktop and marks them as opened on your handheld. Refer to "Using wireless email reconciliation" on page 72 for more information.

I deleted an email message from my desktop and then reconciled my email messages. Why are email messages not being deleted from my handheld?

You must configure the Message List Options screen so that messages that are deleted from your desktop are deleted from your handheld each time that your email messages are reconciled. Refer to "To delete email messages on your handheld and your desktop" on page 89 for more information.

Messages that you delete from the desktop are moved into the Deleted Items folder. The messages are deleted from your handheld the next time email reconciliation occurs.

Microsoft Exchange

If you are Microsoft Outlook user on a Microsoft Exchange server, two scenarios might prevent messages from being deleted from your handheld:

- In Microsoft Outlook, on the Tools menu, click Options and click the Other tab. Verify that the Empty Deleted Items folder upon exit option is not selected. If you empty your Deleted Items folder when you close Outlook, there is no method to verify where that message belongs. Without reference to the Deleted Items folder, the status of the message on your handheld cannot be updated and the message is not deleted.

- If you delete messages from your desktop using a Shift key + the Backspace key, the message is removed from your desktop and does not appear in your Deleted Items folder. Without reference to the message, the status of the message on your handheld cannot be updated and the message is not deleted.

Messages are not being sent from my handheld. What should I do?

Verify that your handheld's radio is turned on and that the network settings are correct. Your messages might not be transmitting for a few reasons:

- If a clock icon appears beside the unsent message, you are not in a wireless coverage area. You must be in a location with sufficient wireless coverage for your messages to be sent. Check the wireless coverage indicator that is located in the top right corner of your handheld's Home screen. Refer to "Network status icons" on page 34 for more information on the wireless coverage indicator.

  • If an X icon appears beside the unsent message, an error occurred during its transmission. Open the message and scroll to the top of it. The Message Status field indicates what happened. Refer to "Handheld error messages" on page 254 for more information on the error messages that appear in the Message Status field.
  • If you have integrated your handheld with an enterprise email account and a check mark appears beside the sent message but the recipient has not yet received it, check Microsoft Outlook or Lotus Notes and verify that a copy of the message appears your Sent Items folder.

I have integrated my handheld with an enterprise email account that uses the BlackBerry Enterprise Server or the BlackBerry Desktop Redirector, but my email messages are not forwarded to my handheld. What should I do?

Email messages might not be forwarded to your handheld for several reasons:

Microsoft Exchange

Is your computer turned on? If you are a Microsoft Exchange user, and you are using the BlackBerry Desktop Redirector, and your computer is turned off, messages are not forwarded to your handheld. Your computer must be turned on any time that you want to receive messages on your handheld.

Is the BlackBerry Desktop Redirector running? If you are a Microsoft Exchange user and you are using the desktop redirector to forward your email messages, messages are not forwarded to your handheld is the desktop redirector is not running. If your company uses the BlackBerry Enterprise Server to forward your email messages, you do not need to have the desktop redirector running. Look for the desktop redirector icon in the right corner of your Windows taskbar. If it appears, the desktop redirector is running. If it does not appear, click Start on the Windows taskbar and select Programs > BlackBerry > BlackBerry Desktop Redirector.

Have you created Microsoft Exchange Inbox Assistant rules? If you are a Microsoft Exchange user and you have set up Inbox Assistant rules that move new messages from the Inbox to another folder, new messages are not forwarded to your handheld unless email is specifically redirected from that folder. If you have not specified email redirection from specific folders, the Inbox Assistant moves the message before the message can be forwarded. Either delete the Inbox Assistant rule or change the folder redirection settings to forward messages to your handheld.

  • Is your handheld connected to your computer with the desktop software running? If your handheld is connected to the computer with the desktop software running, and you have selected the option to not forward messages when your handheld connected to the computer, you do not receive messages on your handheld.
  • Have you set Redirector Settings filter rules? If you have enabled filters in the Redirector Settings tool, you might have instructed the desktop software to send only certain messages to your handheld. Check the filters to verify that the messages that you want to receive are being forwarded.
  • Have you set the order of the filters? If a new Redirector Settings filter applies to a subset of the messages of an existing filter, the new filter should appear at the top of the list.

Troubleshooting

- Have you selected the "Forward messages to my handheld" check box? Check the settings on the General tab and verify that the Forward messages to my handheld check box is selected. Check the settings on the Advanced tab and verify that you have selected the proper folders from which email should be redirected. If you are using the BlackBerry Enterprise Server to forward your email messages, there are certain cases in which messages might not be forwarded to your handheld if they are read on your desktop before being processed by the server. If you are in an area of low wireless coverage and you read a message on your desktop, before it is processed by the BlackBerry Enterprise Server, the server might not recognize the message as unread. Therefore, it is not forwarded to your handheld.

- Have you selected from which folders you want to receive email messages? Check the Advanced tab of the Redirector Settings tool and verify that you have selected the folders from which you want to receive email messages. Refer to the Redirector Settings Online Help for more information on selecting folders.

Why can I not forward messages from my handheld?

If an X icon appears beside the message that you sent, a transmission error occurred that prevented it from being sent. You cannot forward messages that have not been transmitted properly. Open the message and scroll to the top of it. The Message Status field indicates the error. Refer to "Handheld error messages" on page 254 for more information. After the original message is sent successfully, you can forward it to another email address.

Why did I have several email messages on my handheld before I turned on the radio?

These email messages are previously loaded onto your handheld and contain information to help you learn about your handheld when you first receive it. As soon as you turn on your handheld's radio, another message should arrive, indicating that the handheld is registered with the Nextel wireless network.

How do I send an email message from a specific service?

To send an email message from a specific service, scroll to the top of the message. In the Using field, press the Space key until the preferred service appears. Any subsequent messages are also sent from this service.

Punctuation

Where can I find the period (.) and other punctuation marks on the keyboard?

- The quickest way to type a period (.) is to press the Space key twice at the end of a sentence. The next letter is capitalized automatically.

- Press the Alt key and an associated character at the same time to insert common punctuation marks. The punctuation mark is printed above the primary character on the key. Refer to "Using the keyboard and trackwheel" on page 24 for more information on the Alt key and special key combinations.

- Other punctuation marks are included in the symbols library, which you can open by pressing the Symbol key. Refer to "Inserting symbols" on page 46 for more information.

252 BlackBerry Wireless Handheld

- You can also insert international and accented characters in your messages. When you are composing a message or entering text, hold a letter and roll the trackwheel to scroll through international characters, marks, and equation symbols. When the preferred character appears, release the letter key.

Security

What should I do if the Security Self Tests fail?

If you perform a Security Self Test and the tests fail, run the tests again. Refer to "To perform Security Self Tests" on page 240 for more information.

If the tests fail a second time, reload your handheld's applications. Refer to the Getting Started Guide for information on loading handheld applications. If the tests continue to fail, contact Nextel Customer Care for more information.

Storage

What should I do if I will not use my handheld for a short period of time?

If you expect that you will not use your handheld for a short period of time (two weeks or less) turn off the handheld. On the Home screen, click the Turn Power Off icon. To turn on the handheld again, press the Power key.

What should I do if I will not use my handheld for an extended period of time?

Before you store your handheld for an extended period of time, you should save the information from your handheld to your desktop using the desktop software's Backup and Restore tool.

If you expect that you will not use your handheld for many weeks or months, on the Home screen, click the Turn Power Off icon, and then remove the battery from the handheld. Your handheld shuts down and, after approximately 24 hours, enters a special storage state. You should store your handheld in a cool, dry place. When you press any keys or click the trackwheel while your handheld is in this state, it does not respond.

To reactivate your handheld, insert the battery into your handheld and recharge it. Your stored addresses and messages are preserved while your handheld is turned off. When you turn on your handheld, a dialog box appears on your screen that prompts you to confirm the current date and time. Click Edit to open the Date/Time screen to set the date and time.
