During wireless charging or fast charging, the device may feel hotter to the touch. This does not affect the devices lifespan or performance and is in the devices normal range of operation. If the battery becomes too hot, the charger may stop charging. Do the following when the device heats up:

Disconnect the charger from the device and close any running apps. Wait for the device to cool down and then begin charging the device again. If the lower part of the device overheats, it could be because the connected USB cable is damaged. Replace the damaged USB cable with a new Samsung-approved one. When using a wireless charger, do not place foreign materials, such as metal objects, magnets, and magnetic stripe cards, between the device and the wireless charger. The wireless charging or fast charging feature is only available on supported models. 6 Basics When the device heats up during use When you use features or apps that require more power or use them for extended periods, your device may temporarily heat up due to increased battery consumption. Close any running apps and do not use the device for a while. The following are examples of situations in which the device may overheat. Depending on the functions and apps you use, these examples may not apply to your model. During the initial setup after purchase or when restoring data When downloading large files When using apps that require more power or using apps for extended periods When playing high-quality games for extended periods When recording videos for extended periods When streaming videos while using the maximum brightness setting When connecting to a TV While multitasking (or, when running many apps in the background) When using Multi window When updating or installing apps while recording videos When downloading large files during a video call When recording videos while using a navigation app When using large amount of data for syncing with the cloud, email, or other accounts When using a navigation app in a car while the device is placed in direct sunlight When using the mobile hotspot and tethering feature When using the device in areas with weak signals or no reception When charging the battery with a damaged USB cable When the devices multipurpose jack is damaged or exposed to foreign materials, such as liquid, dust, metal powder, and pencil lead When you are roaming 7 Basics Do the following when the device heats up:

Keep the device updated with the latest software. Conflicts between running apps may cause the device to heat up. Restart the device. Deactivate the Wi-Fi, GPS, and Bluetooth features when not using them. Close apps that increase battery consumption or that run in the background when not in use. Delete unnecessary files or unused apps. Decrease the screen brightness. If the device overheats or feels hot for a prolonged period, do not use it for a while. If the device continues to overheat, contact a Samsung Service Centre. Precautions for device overheating If you begin to feel uncomfortable due to the device overheating, stop using the device. When the device heats up, the features and performance may be limited or the device may turn off to cool down. The feature is only available on supported models. If the device overheats and reaches a certain temperature, a warning massage will appear to prevent device failure, skin irritations and damages, and battery leakage. To lower the devices temperature, the screen brightness and the performance speed will be limited and battery charging will stop. Running apps will be closed and all calling and other features will be limited, except for emergency calls, until the device cools down. If the second message appears due to a further increase of the devices temperature, the device will turn off. Do not use the device until the devices temperature drops below the specified level. If the second warning message appears during an emergency call, the call will not be disconnected by a forced shut down. 8 Basics Precautions for operating environment Your device may heat up due to the environment in the following conditions.

Charging the battery Charge the battery before using it for the first time or when it has been unused for extended periods. Use only Samsung-approved chargers, batteries, and cables. Unapproved chargers or cables can cause the battery to explode or damage the device. Connecting the charger improperly may cause serious damage to the device. Any damage caused by misuse is not covered by the warranty. To save energy, unplug the charger when not in use. The charger does not have a power switch, so you must unplug the charger from the electric socket when not in use to avoid wasting power. The charger should remain close to the electric socket and easily accessible while charging. 13 Basics 1 Connect the USB cable to the USB power adaptor. 2 Plug the USB cable into the devices multipurpose jack. 3 Plug the USB power adaptor into an electric socket. 4 After fully charging, disconnect the charger from the device. Then, unplug the charger from the electric socket. Reducing the battery consumption Your device provides various options that help you conserve battery power. Optimise the device using the device care feature. When you are not using the device, turn off the screen by pressing the Power key. Activate power saving mode. Close unnecessary apps. Deactivate the Bluetooth feature when not in use. Deactivate auto-syncing of apps that need to be synced. Decrease the backlight time.

If the battery is completely discharged, the device cannot be turned on immediately when the charger is connected. Allow a depleted battery to charge for a few minutes before turning on the device. If you use multiple apps at once, network apps, or apps that need a connection to another device, the battery will drain quickly. To avoid losing power during a data transfer, always use these apps after fully charging the battery. Using a power source other than the charger, such as a computer, may result in a slower charging speed due to a lower electric current. The device can be used while it is charging, but it may take longer to fully charge the battery. If the device receives an unstable power supply while charging, the touchscreen may not function. If this happens, unplug the charger from the device. While charging, the device and the charger may heat up. This is normal and should not affect the devices lifespan or performance. If the battery gets hotter than usual, the charger may stop charging. If this occurs during wireless charging, disconnect the device from the charger to let it cool down, then charge the device again later. If you charge the device while the multipurpose jack is wet, the device may be damaged. Thoroughly dry the multipurpose jack before charging the device. If the device is not charging properly, take the device and the charger to a Samsung Service Centre. 15 Basics SIM or USIM card (nano-SIM card) (SM-T505) Installing the SIM or USIM card Insert the SIM or USIM card provided by the mobile telephone service provider.
