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.
•
Avoid dropping the cell phone. Dropping the phone or the battery,
especially on a hard surface, can potentially cause damage to the 
phone and battery. If you suspect damage to the phone 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 phone.
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 phone caused by 
non-Samsung-approved batteries and/or chargers.
•
Do not use incompatible cell phone 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 phones, 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.
