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.
•
Do not handle a damaged or leaking battery. Do not let
leaking battery fluid come in contact with your eyes, skin or
clothing. For safe disposal options, contact your nearest
Samsung-authorized service center.
•
Avoid dropping the cell phone. Dropping the phone or the
battery, especially on a hard surface, can potentially cause
damage to the phone and battery. If you suspect damage to
the phone or battery, take it to a service center for
inspection.
•
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any
way.
•
Do not allow the battery to touch metal objects.
Accidental short-circuiting can occur when a metallic object
(coin, key, jewelry, 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.
Important! Use only Samsung-approved batteries, and
recharge your battery only with
Samsung-approved chargers which are
specifically designed for your phone.
