Battery Use & Safety
The battery in GALAXY is not intended to be replaced by the
consumer. If you believe the battery is damaged or needs to be
replaced, take the GALAXY to a service center for inspection and
replacement.
Do not let the GALAXY or battery come in contact with liquids. Liquids
•
can get into the GALAXY's circuits, leading to corrosion. Even when
the GALAXY appears to be dry and appears to operate normally, the
circuitry could slowly corrode and pose a safety hazard. If the GALAXY
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 GALAXY or the battery and could cause the GALAXY 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 GALAXY in your car in high temperatures.
•
Do not dispose of the GALAXY or the battery in a fire. The GALAXY or
the battery may explode when overheated.
Avoid dropping the cell GALAXY. Dropping the GALAXY, especially on a
•
hard surface, can potentially cause damage to the GALAXY. If you
suspect damage to the GALAXY or battery, take it to a service center
for inspection.
•
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any way.

Important!: Use only Samsung-approved batteries, and recharge your battery
only with Samsung-approved chargers which are specifically
designed for your GALAXY.
WARNING!
Use of a non-Samsung-approved battery or charger may present
a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. Samsung's
warranty does not cover damage to the GALAXY caused by non-
Samsung-approved batteries and/or chargers.
Do not use incompatible batteries and chargers. Some websites and
•
second-hand dealers not associated with reputable manufacturers and
carriers, might be selling incompatible or even counterfeit batteries
and chargers. Consumers should purchase manufacturer or carrier-
recommended products and accessories. If unsure about whether a
replacement battery or charger is compatible, contact the
manufacturer of the battery or charger.
Misuse or use of incompatible batteries and charging devices could
•
result in damage to the equipment and a possible risk of fire,
explosion, or leakage, leading to serious injuries, damages to your
phone, or other serious hazard.
