Charge the battery

Before using the device for the first time or when the battery has been unused for an extended period, you must charge the battery. Charge the battery only with a charger. You cannot charge the battery with a USB cable.

You cannot replace the battery in the device. If you have problems with the battery or need it replaced, take the device to a Samsung Service Centre.

Use only Samsung-approved chargers and cables.

Unapproved chargers or cables may cause batteries to explode or damage your device.

When your battery is low, the device will emit a warning tone and show a low battery message.

Recharge your battery to continue using your device.

If the battery is completely discharged, you cannot turn on the device, even while it is charging. Allow a depleted battery to charge for a few minutes before you try to turn on the device.
