Section 15: Health and Safety Information 167
• Do not permit a battery out of the phone to come in contact with metal objects, such
as coins, keys or jewelry.
• Do not crush, puncture or put a high degree of pressure on the battery as this can
cause an internal short-circuit, resulting in overheating.
• Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations. In some areas, the
disposal of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited. For safe
disposal options for Li-Ion batteries, contact your nearest Samsung authorized
service center. Always recycle. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.
Care and Maintenance
Your phone is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be treated
with care. The suggestions below will help you fulfill any warranty obligations and
allow you to enjoy this product for many years
• Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories out of the reach of small children's.
• Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and liquids contain minerals that will
corrode electronic circuits.
• Do not use the phone with a wet hand. Doing so may cause an electric shock to you
or damage to the phone.
• Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas, as its moving parts may be
damaged.
• Do not store the phone in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of
electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.
• Do not store the phone in cold areas. When the phone warms up to its normal
operating temperature, moisture can form inside the phone, which may damage the
phone's electronic circuit boards.
• Do not drop, knock or shake the phone. Rough handling can break internal circuit
boards.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or strong detergents to clean the
phone. Wipe it with a soft cloth slightly dampened in a mild soap-and-water
solution.
• Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the device's moving parts and prevent proper
operation.
• Do not put the phone in or on heating devices, such as a microwave oven, a stove or
a radiator. The phone may explode when overheated.
• If your phone has an external antenna, use only the supplied or an approved
replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas or modified accessories may damage
the phone and violate regulations governing radio devices.
• If the phone, battery, charger or any accessory is not working properly, take it to your
nearest qualified service facility. The personnel there will assist you, and if
necessary, arrange for service.
