Safety 209

Only use the approved battery charger. Otherwise, you may cause serious damage to your phone due to the risk of overheating, fire, or explosion.

Use the correct adapter for your phone when using the battery charger abroad.

Talking on your phone for a long period of time may reduce call quality due to heat generated during use.

Do not use harsh chemicals (such as alcohol, benzene, thinners, etc.) or detergents to clean your phone. This could cause a fire.

Do not place or answer calls while charging the phone as it may short- circuit the phone and/or cause electric shock or flame.

Don’t short-circuit the battery. Metallic articles (such as a coin, paperclip, or pen in your pocket or bag) may short-circuit the battery. Short-circuit may damage the battery and cause an explosion.

Explosion, Shock, and Fire Hazards

Do not put your phone in a place subject to excessive dust and keep the minimum required distance between the power cord and heat sources.

Unplug the power cord prior to cleaning your phone, and clean the power plug pin when it’s dirty.

When using the power plug, ensure that it’s firmly connected. If not, it may cause excessive heat or fire.

If you put your phone in a pocket or bag without covering the receptacle of the phone (power plug pin), metallic articles (such as a coin, paperclip, or pen) may short-circuit the phone and may cause an explosion. Always cover the receptacle when not in use.

General Notice

Do not place items containing magnetic components such as a credit card, phone card, bank book, or subway ticket near your phone. The magnetism of the phone may damage the data stored in the magnetic strip.
