Tip Description
The headset is 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.
Electrical safety
Charge the BlackBerry Universal Headset using only the vehicle power adapter provided or other charging accessory provided
or specifically approved by Research In Motion Limited (RIM) for use with this headset. 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 headset and might be dangerous.
Use the charging accessories provided with the headset 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.
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 headset. 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 connecting to the power supply, see the instructions in this guide.
Battery safety and disposal
The BlackBerry Universal Headset contains a non-removable lithium-polymer battery. Charge the battery with only the
approved BlackBerry charging accessories. Do not attempt to remove the battery. Do not dispose of the headset in a fire, as
the battery might explode. Dispose of the headset in accordance with the laws and regulations in your area governing disposal
of lithium-polymer cell types.
The lithium-polymer battery might present a fire or chemical burn hazard or might explode if mistreated. Do not disassemble,
crush, or puncture the lithium-polymer battery. Do not heat the lithium-polymer battery above 140°F (60°C).
