Road Safety
• Remember, road safety always comes first!
• Do not use a hand-held phone while driving a
vehicle. Always park the vehicle before having a
conversation.
• Make sure that the phone is stored safely and will
not fall or be broken in the event of a collision or
emergency stop.
• The use of an alert device to operate a vehicle’s
lights or horn on public roads is not permitted.
• Only qualified personnel should install or service
the phone in a vehicle. Faulty installation or
service may be dangerous and may invalidate any
warranty applicable to the unit.
• Electronic fuel injection, anti-skid braking,
electronic cruise control or any other electronic
systems may malfunction due to the lack of
protection from radio signals. Check regularly that
all cellular phone equipment in your vehicle is
mounted and operating correctly.
• Use only Samsung-approved batteries and
re c h a rge your battery only with Samsung-appro v e d
c h a rgers. When a charger is not in use, disconnect
it from the power source. Do not leave the battery
connected to a charger for more than a week,
since overc h a rging may shorten its life.
• Extreme temperatures will affect the charging
capacity of your battery: it may require cooling or
warming first.
• Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, such
as in a car in summer or winter conditions, as you
will reduce the capacity and life-time of the
b a t t e ry. Always try to keep the battery at ro o m
t e m p e r a t u re. A phone with a hot or cold battery
may temporarily not work, even when the battery
is fully charged. Li-ion batteries are part i c u l a r l y
a ffected by temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F).
• 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 back of 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-circuit.
• Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local
regulations. Always recycle. Do not dispose of
batteries in a fire.
