Precautions for Repair

Samsung is not liable for any damage or defect determined to be caused by repair by

a non-authorized carrier, self repair or non-professional repair of the device. Samsung

issue caused by any attempt to repair the device which does not follow these repair and

Any damage to the device or defect caused by an attempt to repair the device by any

person other than a Samsung certified carrierwill not be covered by the warranty.

•

Use only demagnetized tools that are specifically designed for small electronic

repairs, as most electronic parts are sensitive to electromagnetic forces.

•

Use only high quality screwdrivers when servicing devices. Low quality screwdrivers

can easily damage the heads of screws.

•

Always use genuine replacement parts. Third-party replacement parts may not

function properly and could cause a fire or injury.

•

Some parts, such as sensors (laser AF/proximity/fingerprint), the rear camera,

the TSP (touch panel), speakers, and other components, may need calibration to

guarantee their performance after repair.

•

The performance of the device’s water and dust resistance cannot be guaranteed

when it is repaired by the user or another unskilled worker.

•

If you need to access the failure data of your device or need to get a more detailed

diagnosis, visit a Samsung Service Center.

•

If you need to replace unsold parts, visit a Samsung Service Center and receive

further instruction.

•

ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) Precautions

It is the sudden flow of electricity between two electrically charged objects caused by

contact, an electrical short, or dielectric breakdown. ESD can cause negative effects on

mobile phone, especially electrical parts.

•

It is recommended to use ESD safety (Anti-static) equipment such as an anti-static

wrist strap and gloves, and an ESD safe mat when repairing the device.

•

Increase the airflow to the work area to decrease the chance of accidental static

electricity discharges, as the potential for static electricity discharge may be

increased in low-humidity environments, such as air-conditioned rooms.
