Battery Precautions

Avoid dropping the device. Dropping it, especially on a hard surface,

can potentially cause damage to the device and battery. If you suspect
damage to the device or battery, take it to a service center for
inspection.

Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any way.

Do not modify or remanufacture the battery as this could result in

serious safety hazards.

If you use the device near the network's base station, it uses less

power; usage and standby time are greatly affected by the signal
strength on the cellular network and the parameters set by the
network operator.

Follow battery usage, storage and charging guidelines found in the

user’s guide.

Battery charging time depends on the remaining battery charge and

the type of battery and charger used. The battery can be charged and
discharged hundreds of times, but it will gradually wear out. When the
operation time is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to buy a
new battery.

If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time.

Use only Samsung-approved batteries and recharge your battery only

with Samsung-approved chargers. 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 overcharging may
shorten its life.

Do not use incompatible batteries and chargers. Some Web sites 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, leakage, or other serious hazard.

Extreme temperatures will affect the charging capacity of your battery:

it may require cooling or warming first.
