NOTEUse only charging devices and batteries that are approved by Samsung.

Samsung charging devices and batteries are designed for your device to

maximize battery life. Using other charging devices and batteries may void your

warranty and may cause damage.

NOTEYour device is IP68 rated for dust and water resistance. To maintain the

water-resistant and dust-resistant features of your device, make sure that the

SIM card/Memory card tray openings are maintained free of dust and water, and

the tray is securely inserted prior to any exposure to liquids. For more

information, see Maintaining water and dust resistance on page148.

NOTEWhile charging, the device and the charger may become hot and stop

charging. This usually does not affect the device’s lifespan or performance and is

in the normal range of operation. Remove the device from the charger and wait

for the device to cool down. For more information, visit
