Handle and dispose of batteries and chargers with care

  • Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers specifically designed for your device. Incompatible batteries and chargers can cause serious injuries or damage to your device.
  • Never dispose of batteries or devices in a fire. Follow all local regulations when disposing of used batteries or devices.
  • Never place batteries or devices on or in heating devices, such as microwave ovens, stoves, or radiators. Batteries may explode when overheated.
  • Never crush or puncture the battery. Avoid exposing the battery to high external pressure, which can lead to an internal short circuit and overheating.

Protect the device, batteries, and chargers from damage

  • Avoid exposing your device and batteries to very cold or very hot temperatures.
  • Extreme temperatures can cause the deformation of the device and reduce the charging capacity and life of your device and batteries.
  • Prevent batteries from contacting metal objects, as this can create a connection between the + and – terminals of your batteries and lead to temporary or permanent battery damage.
  • Never use a damaged charger or battery.


Follow all safety warnings and regulations when using your device in restricted areas

Turn off your device where prohibited
Comply with all regulations that restrict the use of a mobile device in a particular area.
Do not use your device near other electronic devices
Most electronic devices use radio frequency signals. Your device may interfere with other electronic devices.
Do not use your device near a pacemaker

  • Avoid using your device within a 15 cm range of a pacemaker if possible, as your device can interfere with the pacemaker.
  • If you must use your device, keep at least 15 cm away from the pacemaker.
  • To minimize the possible interference with a pacemaker, use your device on the opposite side of your body from the pacemaker.

Do not use your device in a hospital or near medical equipment that can be interfered with by radio frequency
If you personally use any medical equipment, contact the manufacturer of the equipment to ensure the safety of your equipment from radio frequency.

Comply with all safety warnings and regulations regarding mobile device usage while operating a vehicle

  • Use a hands-free device.
  • Get to know your device and its convenience features, such as speed dial and redial. These features help you reduce the time needed to place or receive calls on your mobile device.
  • Place your device within reach. Be able to access your wireless device without removing your eyes from the road. If you receive an incoming call at an inconvenient time, let your voice mail answer it for you.
  • Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving. Suspend calls in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice, and heavy traffic can be hazardous.
  • Do not take notes or look up phone numbers. Jotting down a "to do" list or flipping through your address book takes attention away from your primary responsibility of driving safely.
  • Dial sensibly and assess the traffic. Place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls when your car will be stationary. If you need to make a call, dial only a few numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.
  • Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting. Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and suspend conversations that have the potential to divert your attention from the road.
  • Use your device to call for help. Dial a local emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident, or medical emergencies.
  • Use your device to help others in emergencies. If you see an auto accident, a crime in progress, or a serious emergency where lives are in danger, call a local emergency number.
  • Call roadside assistance or a special, non-emergency assistance number when necessary. If you see a broken-down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where no one appears injured, or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside assistance or another special, non-emergency number.
