Battery Use and Safety

Important! Handle and store batteries properly to avoid injury or damage. Most
battery issues arise from improper handling of batteries and,
particularly, from the continued use of damaged batteries.
•
Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, shred, or otherwise attempt to change the
form of your battery. Do not put a high degree of pressure on the battery. This can
cause leakage or an internal short-circuit, resulting in overheating.
•
Do not let the phone or battery come in contact with liquids. Liquids can get into
the phone's circuits, leading to corrosion. Even when the phone appears to be dry and
appears to operate normally, the circuitry could slowly corrode and pose a safety
hazard. If the phone and/or battery get wet, have them checked by your service
provider or contact Samsung, even if they appear to be working properly.
•
Do not place your battery in or near a heat source. Excessive heating can damage
the phone or the battery and could cause the phone or the battery to explode. Do not
dry a wet or damp battery with an appliance or heat source such as a microwave oven,
hair dryer, iron, or radiator. Avoid leaving your phone in your car in high temperatures.
•
Do not dispose of the phone or the battery in a fire. The phone or the battery may
explode when overheated.
