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.
