safety and usage information
Install mobile devices and equipment
with caution
Ensure that any mobile devices or related equipment
installed in your vehicle are securely mounted. Avoid
placing your device and accessories near or in an air
bag deployment area. Improperly installed wireless
equipment can cause serious injury when air bags
inflate rapidly.
Handle and dispose of batteries and
chargers with care
• Use only Samsung-approved batteries and
chargers specifically designed for your device.
Incompatible batteries and chargers can cause
serious injuries or damage to your device.
• Never dispose of batteries or devices in a fire.
Follow all local regulations when disposing used
batteries or devices.
• Never place batteries or devices on or in heating
devices, such as microwave ovens, stoves, or
radiators. Batteries may explode when
overheated.
• Never crush or puncture the battery. Avoid
exposing the battery to high external pressure,
which can lead to an internal short circuit and
overheating.
Avoid interference with pacemakers
Maintain a minimum of 15 cm (6 inches) between
mobile devices and pacemakers to avoid potential
interference, as recommended by manufacturers
and the independent research group, Wireless
Technology Research. If you have any reason to
suspect that your device is interfering with a
pacemaker or other medical device, turn off the
device immediately and contact the manufacturer of
the pacemaker or medical device for guidance.

replace the glass
Turn off the device in potentially
explosive environments
Do not use your device at refuelling points (service
stations) or near fuels or chemicals. Turn off your

instructions. Your device could cause explosions or
fire in and around fuel or chemical storage and
transfer areas or blasting areas. Do not store or carry
flammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials in
the same compartment as the device, its parts, or

Reduce the risk of repetitive motion
injuries
While using your device, hold the device with a

regulations that restrict the use of mobile devices
while driving. Use hands-free accessories to
