Health and Safety Information 202
•
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur when a metallic object (coin, clip or pen) causes a direct
connection between the + and - terminals of the battery (metal strips on the battery), for example when you carry a spare
battery in a pocket or bag. Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the battery or the object causing the short-circuiting.
•
Do not permit a battery out of the phone to come in contact with metal objects, such as coins, keys or jewelry.
•
Do not crush, puncture or put a high degree of pressure on the battery as this can cause an internal short-circuit, resulting in
overheating.
•
Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations. In some areas, the disposal of batteries in household or
business trash may be prohibited. For safe disposal options for Li-Ion batteries, contact your nearest Samsung authorized
service center. Always recycle. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.
Care and Maintenance
Your phone is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be treated with care. The suggestions
below will help you fulfill any warranty obligations and allow you to enjoy this product for many years.
•
Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories out of the reach of small children.
•
Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and liquids contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits.
•
Do not use the phone with a wet hand. Doing so may cause an electric shock to you or damage to the phone.
•
Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas, as its moving parts may be damaged.
•
Do not store the phone in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp
or melt certain plastics.
•
Do not store the phone in cold areas. When the phone warms up to its normal operating temperature, moisture can form inside
the phone, which may damage the phone's electronic circuit boards.
•
Do not drop, knock or shake the phone. Rough handling can break internal circuit boards.
•
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or strong detergents to clean the phone. Wipe it with a soft cloth slightly
dampened in a mild soap-and-water solution.
•
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.
•
If your phone is equipped with an external antenna, 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.
