Battery

Installing the battery

Remove the back cover.

Be careful not to damage your fingernails when you remove the back cover.

Do not bend or twist the back cover excessively. Doing so may damage the cover.

Insert the battery with the battery’s gold-coloured contacts properly aligned with the

device’s contacts.

Basics

Replace the back cover.

Removing the battery

Remove the back cover.

Pull out the battery.

Basics

Charging the battery

Charge the battery before using it for the first time or when it has been unused for extended periods.

Use only Samsung-approved chargers, batteries, and cables. Unapproved chargers or cables can cause the battery to explode or damage the device.

Plug the small end of the charger into the multipurpose jack of the device, and plug the

large end of the charger into an electric socket.

Connecting the charger improperly may cause serious damage to the device. Any damage caused by misuse is not covered by the warranty.

After fully charging, disconnect the device from the charger. First unplug the charger

from the device, and then unplug it from the electric socket.

Do not remove the battery before removing the charger. This may damage the device.

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.

Basics

Viewing the remaining charging time

While charging, open the Home screen and tap

The actual charging time may vary depending on the status of your device and the charging conditions. The remaining charging time may not be displayed when you charge the device in very cold or very hot conditions.

Battery charging tips and precautions

t

When the battery power is low, the battery icon appears empty.

t

If the battery is completely discharged, the device cannot be turned on immediately when the charger is connected. Allow a depleted battery to charge for a few minutes before turning on the device.

t

If you use multiple apps at once, network apps, or apps that need a connection to another device, the battery will drain quickly. To avoid losing power during a data transfer, always use these apps after fully charging the battery.

t

Using a power source other than the charger, such as a computer, may result in a slower charging speed due to a lower electric current.

Basics

t

The device can be used while it is charging, but it may take longer to fully charge the battery.

t

If the device receives an unstable power supply while charging, the touchscreen may not function. If this happens, unplug the charger from the device.

t

While charging, the device and the charger may heat up. This is normal and should not affect the device’s lifespan or performance. If the battery gets hotter than usual, the charger may stop charging.

t

If the device is not charging properly, take the device and the charger to a Samsung Service Centre.
