charged. Li-ion batteries are particularly affected by temperatures below 0
°C (32 °F).

Do not place the phone in areas that may get very hot, such as on or near a

cooking surface, cooking appliance, iron, or radiator.

Do not get your phone or battery wet. Even though they will dry and appear

to operate normally, the circuitry could slowly corrode and pose a safety
hazard.

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.
