Safety and usage
information
Comply with the following precautions to
avoid dangerous or illegal situations and
ensure peak performance of your device.
Safety warnings
Keep your device away from small
children and pets
Keep your device and all accessories out
of the reach of small children or animals.
Small parts may cause choking or serious
injury if swallowed.
Protect your hearing
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 of used batteries or
devices.
Listening to a headset at high
volumes can damage your
hearing. Use only the minimum
volume setting necessary to
hear your conversation or music.

6
• 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.
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 device whenever
directed by warning signs or 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
accessories.
Reduce the risk of repetitive motion
injuries
When sending text messages or playing
games on your device, hold the device
with a relaxed grip, press the keys lightly,
use special features that reduce the
number of keys you have to press (such
as templates and predictive text), and
take frequent breaks.
