Getting started

•

When using the speakers, such as when playing media files or using speakerphone,

do not place the device close to your ears.

•

Be careful not to expose the camera lens to a strong light source, such as direct

sunlight. If the camera lens is exposed to a strong light source, the camera image

sensor may be damaged. A damaged image sensor is irreparable and will cause dots

or spots in pictures.

•

If you use the device with its glass or acrylic body broken, there may be a risk of

injury. Use the device only after it has been repaired at a Samsung Service Centre.

•

If dust or foreign materials enter the microphone, speaker, or receiver, the device’s

sound may become quiet or certain features may not work. If you attempt to remove

the dust or foreign materials with a sharp object, the device may be damaged and its

appearance may be affected.

•

Connectivity problems and battery drain may occur in the following situations:

–

If you attach metallic stickers on the antenna area of the device

–

If you attach a device cover made with metallic material to the device

–

If you cover the device’s antenna area with your hands or other objects while

using certain features, such as calls or the mobile data connection

•

If the area around the rear camera is covered with accessories, such as a screen

protector or stickers, unwanted noises may occur during calls or media playback.

•

Do not cover the proximity/light sensor area with accessories, such as stickers or a

cover. Doing so may cause the sensor to malfunction.

•

The light may flicker at the top of the device during calls due to proximity sensor

operation.
