Health and Safety Information 53
•
Do not let the GALAXY come in contact with liquids
. Liquids
can get into the GALAXY's circuits, leading to corrosion. Even
when the GALAXY appears to be dry and appears to operate
normally, the circuitry could slowly corrode and pose a safety
hazard. If the GALAXY 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 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. Do
not carry device in your back pocket, which could damage the
device if you fall. If you suspect damage to the GALAXY or battery,
take it to a service center for inspection.
•
Never use any charger, outlet, 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.
