technical support to obtain a replacement. Use of a damaged battery can cause
electrical shorts, overheating, and other component failures.
Avoid dropping the device or battery.
Dropping the device or the battery, especially on a hard surface, can potentially
damage the device and battery. If you suspect damage to the device or battery, take it
to a Samsung-authorized service center for inspection.
Proper battery use, care and safe handling
Although newer devices contain internal batteries, knowing how to properly maintain
and safeguard these components is still very important. Battery life and proper use go
hand-in-hand, and to make the best use of your battery, it’s important that you review
these important maintenance and safe use recommendations:
Note:
Internal batteries are not intended to be removed by unauthorized parties. For
servicing, please contact your nearest Samsung-authorized service center at:
www.samsung.com/us/support/customerservice
.
Important:
Handle and store batteries properly to avoid injury or damage. Most battery
issues arise from improper handling of batteries and, particularly, from the continued
use of damaged batteries.
Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, shred, or otherwise attempt to change the form of
your battery.
Do not put a high degree of pressure on the battery. This can cause leakage or an
internal short circuit, resulting in overheating, and exposure of internal components.
Exposure of internal components can cause damage to both yourself and your
surroundings.
Do not place your battery in or near a heat source. Excessive heating can damage the
device and/or the battery. Exposing these components to excessive heat for a
prolonged period could cause the device or the battery to explode. Avoid leaving your
device in your car under prolonged high temperatures such as those above 45°C / 113°
