Caring for the Battery

Use only SAMSUNG-approved batteries, Desktop and Travel chargers. These chargers maximize battery life and performance. Using other batteries or chargers may invalidate your warranty and may damage your phone.

For proper battery care, please follow these guidelines:

•Do not use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity areas (such as a bathroom).

•Never dispose of the battery by incineration (fire).

•Keep the metal contacts at the battery base clean.

•Do not attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery, as injuries or burns may result.

•Replace the battery when it provides no longer acceptable performance.

•Do not store the battery in high-temperature areas for a long time.

•Do not allow metal objects or liquids to contact or short-circuit the battery terminals, as injuries or burns may result.

Battery Disposal and Recycling

Please be aware of the following guidelines when disposing of or recycling the battery:

•Do not dispose of the battery in a fire; the cell may explode. Check the regulations in your area for special disposal instructions.

•Do not open or puncture the battery; the released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes and skin. This substance also can be toxic if swallowed.

•Charge the battery in accordance with the instructions specified in this manual.
