The battery can becharged and discharged hundreds of times, butit will gradually wear out. When the operationtime (talk time and standby time) is noticeablyshorter than normal, it is time to buy a newbattery.• If left unused, a fully charged battery willdischarge itself over time. Use only Samsung-approved batteries and recharge your batteryonly with Samsung-approved chargers. Whena charger is not in use, disconnect it from thepower source. Do not leave the batteryconnected to a charger for more than a week,since overcharging may shorten its life.• Extreme temperatures will affect the chargingcapacity of your battery: it may require coolingor warming first.• Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places,such as in a car in summer or winterconditions, as you will reduce the capacity andlifetime of the battery. Always try to keep thebattery at room temperature. A phone with ahot or cold battery may temporarily not work,even when the battery is fully charged. Li-ionbatteries are particularly affected bytemperatures below 0 °C (32 °F).• Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidentalshortcircuiting can occur when a metallicobject (coin, clip or pen) causes a directconnection between the + and . terminals ofthe battery (metal strips on the battery), forexample when you carry a spare battery in apocket or bag. Short-circuiting the terminalsmay damage the battery or the object causingthe short-circuiting.• Dispose of used batteries in accordance withlocal regulations. Always recycle. Do notdispose of batteries in a fire.Road SafetyYour wireless phone gives you the powerfulability to communicate by voice, almostanywhere, anytime.
