•

battery. Simply connect it to your Gear S (no cable needed).

The charging dock automatically charges while

•

the Gear S is charging, or can be charged independently without the Gear S.

About the Battery

Battery operating time is affected by device

•

usage patterns and the condition of the battery. Battery life can be reduced when multiple apps

•

or features are running simultaneously.

Note: During charging, the Gear S 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 S is not charging properly, contact a Samsung Service Center.

Charging the Battery

Before using your Gear S for the rst time,

charge the battery. You can charge the Gear S by connecting it to the charging dock and plugging the USB charger into an outlet, or by connecting it to a computer with an optional USB cable (not included).

If the battery is completely depleted, you won’t be able to turn the Gear S on immediately. Allow a depleted battery to charge for a few minutes before turning on the Gear S.

Using Gear S during charging may cause the battery to charge more slowly.

Caution: Use only charging devices and batteries approved by Samsung. Samsung accessories are designed for your device to maximize battery life. Using other accessories may invalidate you warranty and may cause damage.

Maintaining Water and Dust

Resistance

This device is rated IP67 using the Ingress Protection rating system.

Your device has been tested in a controlled environment and shown to be water and dust resistant in certain circumstances (meets

requirements of classication IP67 as described

by the international standard IEC 60529 Degrees of Protection provided by Enclosures [IP Code]; test conditions: 15-35°C, 86-106 kPa, 1.0 meters, for 30 minutes). Despite this

classication, your device is not impervious to

water damage in any situation. It is important that all compartments are closed tightly.

Note: If any liquid is found to have entered your device components or an internally sealed system, this condition will void your device warranty.

Follow these tips carefully to prevent damage to the device.

Any device which uses accessible

•

compartments or ports that can be opened should have these sealed or closed tightly to prevent liquid from entering the system.

Whenever your device gets wet, dry it

•

thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth. Do not expose the device to salt water or

•

ionized water, or to water over 1.0 meters deep for more than 30 minutes. If your device is exposed to fresh water, dry it thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth. If the device is exposed to any liquid other than fresh water, rinse the device with fresh water immediately and dry it thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth. Failure to rinse the device in fresh water and dry it as instructed may cause the device to suffer from operability or cosmetic issues.

Do not expose the device to water at high

•

pressure.

If the device is dropped or receives an

•

impact, the water and dust resistant features of the device may be damaged.

The touchscreen and other features may not

•

work properly if the device is used in water or in other liquids. [071516]
