•
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.
•
Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local
regulations. In some areas, the disposal of batteries in
household or business trash may be prohibited. For
safe disposal options for Li-Ion batteries, contact your
nearest Samsung authorized service center. Always
recycle. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.
Care and Maintenance
Your phone is a product of superior design and
craftsmanship and should be treated with care. The
suggestions below will help you fulfill any warranty
obligations and allow you to enjoy this product for many
years.
•
Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories out of
the reach of small children.
•
Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and liquids
contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits.
•
Do not use the phone with a wet hand. Doing so may
cause an electric shock to you or damage to the
phone.
•
Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas, as
its moving parts may be damaged.
•
Do not store the phone in hot areas. High
temperatures can shorten the life of electronic
devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain
plastics.
•
Do not store the phone in cold areas. When the phone
warms up to its normal operating temperature,
moisture can form inside the phone, which may
damage the phone's electronic circuit boards.
•
Do not drop, knock or shake the phone. Rough
handling can break internal circuit boards.
•
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or
strong detergents to clean the phone. Wipe it with a
soft cloth slightly dampened in a mild soap-and-water
solution.
•
Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the device's
moving parts and prevent proper operation.
