Battery Use and Safety
Important! Handle and store batteries properly to avoid
injury or damage
. Most battery issues arise
from improper handling of batteries and,
particularly, from the continued use of
damaged batteries.
• Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, shred, or
otherwise attempt to change the form of your battery
. Do
not put a high degree of pressure on the battery. This can
cause leakage or an internal short-circuit, resulting in
overheating.
• Do not let the phone or battery come in contact with
liquids. Liquids can get into the phone's circuits, leading
to corrosion. Even when the phone appears to be dry and
appears to operate normally, the circuitry could slowly
corrode and pose a safety hazard. If the phone 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 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.
