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 GALAXY or the battery and could cause the
GALAXY 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 GALAXY in your car in high
temperatures.

Do not dispose of the GALAXY or the battery in a fire. The GALAXY

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 GALAXY. Dropping the GALAXY, especially on a

hard surface, can potentially cause damage to the GALAXY. If you
suspect damage to the GALAXY 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 GALAXY.

WARNING!

Use of a non-Samsung-approved battery or charger may present a
risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard
. Samsung's
warranty does not cover damage to the GALAXY caused by
non-Samsung-approved batteries and/or chargers.

Do not use incompatible batteries and chargers. Some websites

and second-hand dealers not associated with reputable manufacturers
and carriers, might be selling incompatible or even counterfeit
batteries and chargers. Consumers should purchase manufacturer or
carrier-recommended products and accessories. If unsure about
whether a replacement battery or charger is compatible, contact the
manufacturer of the battery or charger.

Misuse or use of incompatible batteries and charging devices

could result in damage to the equipment and a possible risk of
fire, explosion, or leakage, leading to serious injuries, damages to
your phone, or other serious hazard
.
