About the battery
Battery properties
A lithium-ion battery is small-sized and has a high capacity. Low ambient temperature (below 10ºC (50ºF)) may shorten its usage time and affect its function.
Be careful not to completely discharge the battery.
- When fully discharged, a battery damages the internal cells. The battery may be prone to leakage when fully discharged.
- If the battery is not used for a long time, fully charge the battery and then, using your product, drain the charge completely once every 3 months to keep the battery functioning properly.
- A battery which is completely discharged may not turn on the recharging LED during charging. It is designed to protect the battery. When charge starts but the charge indicator does not light even within 5 minutes, contact your local Samsung dealer.
The battery lifetime is limited.
- Battery capacity decreases over time and through repeated use. If decreased usage time between charges becomes significant, it is probably time to replace the battery with a new one. Contact your local Samsung dealer.
- Each battery’s life is affected by storage, operating, and environmental conditions.
