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.
•
Extreme temperatures will affect the
charging capacity of your battery: it may
require cooling or warming first.
•
Do not leave the battery in hot or cold
places, such as in a car in summer or
winter conditions, as you will reduce the
capacity and lifetime of the battery.
Always try to keep the battery at room
temperature. A phone with a hot or cold
battery may temporarily not work, even
when the battery is fully charged. Li-ion
batteries are particularly affected by
temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F).
•
Do not short-circuit the battery.
Accidental short-circuiting can occur
when a metallic object (coin, 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.
