Important Safety Information 25
Battery Use and Safety
Important! Handle and store batteries
properly to avoid injury or
damage. Most battery issues arise
from improper handling of batteries
and, particularly, from the continued
use of damaged batteries.
● Do not disassemble, crush, puncture,
shred, or otherwise attempt to change
the form of your battery. Do not put a high
degree of pressure on the battery. This can
cause leakage or an internal short-circuit,
resulting in overheating.
● Do not let the phone or battery come in
contact with liquids. Liquids can get into
the phone's circuits, leading to corrosion.
Even when the phone appears to be dry and
appears to operate normally, the circuitry
could slowly corrode and pose a safety
hazard. If the phone and/or battery get wet,
have them checked by your service provider
or contact Samsung, even if they appear to
be working properly.
● Do not place your battery in or near a
heat source. Excessive heating can
damage the phone or the battery and could
cause the phone or the battery to explode.
Do not dry a wet or damp battery with an
appliance or heat source such as a
microwave oven, hair dryer, iron, or radiator.
