Health and safety information
• Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the device's
moving parts and prevent proper operation.
• Do not put the phone in or on heating devices, such as
a microwave oven, a stove or a radiator. The phone may
explode when overheated.
• When the phone or battery gets wet, the label indicating
water damage inside the phone changes color. In this
case, phone repairs are no longer guaranteed by the
manufacturer's warranty, even if the warranty for your
phone has not expired.
• If your phone has a flash or light, do not use it too close
to the eyes of people or animals. This may cause damage
to their eyes.
• Use only the supplied or an approved replacement
antenna. Unauthorized antennas or modified accessories
may damage the phone and violate regulations
governing radio devices.
• If the phone, battery, charger or any accessory is not
working properly, take it to your nearest qualified
service facility. The personnel there will assist you, and if
necessary, arrange for service.

Precautions when using batteries
• Never use a charger or battery that is damaged in any
way.
• Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
• If you use the phone near the network's base station,
it uses less power. Talk and standby time are greatly
affected by the signal strength on the cellular network
and the parameters set by the service provider.
• Battery charging time depends on the remaining battery
charge, the type of battery, and the charger used. The
battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of
times, but it will gradually wear out. When the operation
time is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to buy
a new battery.
• If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself
over time.
• Use only Samsung-approved batteries, and recharge
your battery only with Samsung-approved chargers.
Disconnect the charger from the power source when it
is not in use. Do not leave the battery connected to a
charger for more than a week, since overcharging may
shorten its life.
• Extreme temperatures will affect the charging capacity
of your battery: it may require cooling or warming first.
• Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places because
the capacity and lifetime of the battery will be reduced.
Try to keep the battery at room temperature. A phone
with a hot or cold battery may not work temporarily,
even when the battery is fully charged. Li-ion batteries
are particularly affected by temperatures below
0℃(32
℉).
• Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-
circuiting can occur when a metallic object like a coin,
clip or pen causes a direct connection between the
+ and - terminals of the battery (metal strips on the
battery). For example, do not carry a spare battery in
a pocket or bag where the battery may contact metal
objects. Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the
battery or the object causing the short-circuiting.
• Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local
regulations. Always recycle. Do not dispose of batteries
in a fire.
