Samsung E800 - Manual (Page 79)

■ Do not paint your phone as this can clog its moving parts
and prevent operation.
■ Only use the antenna supplied or an approved replacement
antenna. Unauthorised antennae, modifications or
attachments could damage the phone and may violate
regulations governing use of mobile phones.
■ Keep all SIM Cards out of children’s reach.
■ Use your phone battery only for its intended purpose, and
never use any charger or battery which is damaged or
worn out.
■ Never allow the battery terminals to short circuit, as this can
cause damage to the battery or to the connecting object
(a short circuit can occur if a metallic object such as a coin,
clip or pen causes direct connection between the + and -
terminals of the battery). Therefore, always take adequate
precautions when carrying a spare battery in a purse
or pocket.
■ Batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly and
according to your local regulations, and must never be
disposed of in household waste. Never dispose of batteries
in a fire.
■ When you disconnect the power cord of any accessory,
including the charger, grasp and pull the plug, not the cord.
■ For good operation times, discharge
an NiMH battery from time to time by leaving your phone
switched on until it turns itself off.
■ Do not attempt to open the casing on your phone or its
battery. Non-expert handling may damage it.

of any other types may invalidate any approval or warranty
applying to the phone, and may be dangerous.
■ Do not charge the battery when either of your phone’s
covers are removed.
■ Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories out of
children’s reach.
■ Your phone is not water resistant.
Keep it dry. Precipitation, humidity and all types of liquids or
moisture can contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits.
■ Do not use your phone in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts
can be damaged.
■ Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. Note that
a new battery’s full performance may only be achieved after
two or three complete charge and discharge cycles.
■ The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of
times but it will eventually wear out. When the operating
time (talk time and standby time) is noticeably shorter than
normal, it is time to buy a new battery.
■ Temperature extremes may affect the ability of your battery
to charge: allow it to cool down or warm up first.
■ Never use any charger or battery which is damaged or
worn out.
■ Always unplug the charger when not in use. Do not
leave the batteries connected to the charger for longer
than a week, since overcharging may shorten its lifetime.
If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself
over time.
