Electrical safety
Charge the BlackBerry® device using only the USB cable ASY-18071-001, travel charger
ASY-18078-001, or ASY-18080-001, automotive charger ASY-04195-002, charging pod
ASY-14396-006, or other charging accessory provided or specifically approved by Research In
Motion for use with this BlackBerry device. 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 might invalidate any warranty provided with the BlackBerry device and might be
dangerous.
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
using any power supply, verify that the mains voltage is in accordance with the voltage printed
on the power supply.
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.

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.

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.
