Charging the battery
Charge the battery before using it for the first time or when it has been unused for an
extended period.
Only use the Samsung-approved battery, charger, and cable specifically designed for
your device. An incompatible battery, charger, or cable can cause serious injuries or
damage to your device.
•
Connecting the charger improperly may cause serious damage to the device. Any
damage caused by misuse is not covered by the warranty.
•
Only use the USB Type-C cable supplied with the device. The device may be
damaged if you use a Micro USB cable.
•
To save energy, unplug the charger when not in use. The charger does not have a
power switch, so you must unplug the charger from the electric socket when not in
use to avoid wasting power. The charger should remain close to the electric socket
and easily accessible while charging.
•
When using a charger, it is recommended to use an approved wired or wireless
charger that guarantees the charging performance.
Wired charging
Connect the USB cable to the USB power adapter and plug the cable into the device’s
multipurpose jack to charge the battery. After fully charging, disconnect the charger from the
device.
