Battery Use and Safety

Important! Handle and store batteries properly to avoid injury or

damage. Most battery issues arise from improper
handling of batteries and, particularly, from the
continued use of damaged batteries.

Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, shred, or otherwise

attempt to change the form of your battery. Do not put a high

degree of pressure on the battery. This can cause leakage or an

internal short-circuit, resulting in overheating.

Do not let the phone or battery come in contact with liquids.

Liquids can get into the phone's circuits, leading to corrosion.

Even when the phone appears to be dry and appears to operate

normally, the circuitry could slowly corrode and pose a safety

hazard. If the phone and/or battery get wet, have them checked

by your service 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 phone or the battery and could cause the

phone 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 phone in your car in

high temperatures.

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

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.
