during a data transfer, always use these apps after fully charging the battery.
•
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.
•
If the Gear is being charged with other devices via a multicharger, charging may take
longer.
14
Getting Started
•
The Gear can be used while it is charging, but it may take longer to fully charge the
battery.
•

•
While charging, the Gear may heat up. This is normal and should not affect the Gear’s
lifespan or performance. If the battery gets hotter than usual, the charger may stop
charging.
•
If the Gear is not charging properly, take the Gear to a Samsung Service Centre.

Band tips and precautions
•
When you wear the Gear for a long time, skin irritation may occur due to friction and
pressure. If you wearing your Gear for a long time, remove the Gear from your wrist and
do not wear your Gear for several hours.
•
Skin irritation may occur due to an allergy, environment factors, other factors, or when
your skin is exposed to soap or sweat for long periods. In this case, stop using your
Gear and wait 2 or 3 days for the symptoms to ease. If the symptoms persist or worsen,
immediately call your doctor.
•
Make sure your skin is dry before wearing your Gear. If you wear a wet Gear for a long
time, your skin may be affected.
•
If you use your Gear in the water, remove foreign materials from your skin and Gear and
dry them thoroughly to prevent the skin irritation.
•
Do not use any accessories except the Gear in the water.
