Health and Safety Information Precautions When Using Batteries • Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any way. • Use the battery only for its intended purpose. • If you use the phone near the network's base station, it uses less power; talk and standby time are greatly affected by the signal strength on the cellular network and the parameters set by the network operator. • Battery charging time depends on the remaining battery charge and the type of battery and charger used. The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but it will gradually wear out. When the operation time (talk time and standby time) is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new battery. • If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time. • Use only Samsung-approved batteries and recharge your battery only with Samsungapproved chargers. When a charger is not in use, disconnect it from the power source. Do not leave the battery connected to a charger for more than a week, since overcharging may shorten its life. • Extreme temperatures will affect the charging capacity of your battery: it may require cooling or warming first. Health and Safety Information • Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a car in summer or winter conditions, as you will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the battery at room temperature. A phone with a hot or cold battery may temporarily not work, even when the battery is fully charged. Li-ion batteries are particularly affected by temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F). • Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental shortcircuiting can occur when a metallic object (coin, clip or pen) causes a direct connection between the + and - terminals of the battery (metal strips on the battery), for example when you carry a spare battery in a pocket or bag. Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the battery or the object causing the short-circuiting. • Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations. Always recycle. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. 114 115

Precautions When Using Batteries
•
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged
in any way.
•
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
•
If you use the phone near the network’s base
station, it uses less power; talk and standby time
are greatly affected by the signal strength on the
cellular network and the parameters set by the
network operator.
•
Battery charging time depends on the remaining
battery charge and the type of battery and
charger used. The battery can be charged and
discharged hundreds of times, but it will
gradually wear out. When the operation time
(talk time and standby time) is noticeably shorter
than normal, it is time to buy a new battery.
•
If left unused, a fully charged battery will
discharge itself over time.
•
Use only Samsung-approved batteries and
recharge your battery only with Samsung-
approved chargers. When a charger is not in use,
disconnect it from the power source. Do not leave
the battery connected to a charger for more than
a week, since overcharging may shorten its life.

Extreme temperatures will affect the charging
capacity of your battery: it may require cooling or
