Battery charging tips and precautions
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 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.

Fingerprint recognition
In order for fingerprint recognition to function, your fingerprint information needs to be
registered and stored in your device.
This feature may not be available depending on the service provider or model.
Fingerprint recognition uses the unique characteristics of each fingerprint to
enhance the security of your device. The likelihood of the fingerprint sensor
confusing two different fingerprints is very low. However, in rare cases where
separate fingerprints are very similar the sensor may recognise them as identical.
If you use your fingerprint as a screen lock method, your fingerprint cannot be
used to unlock the screen for the first time after turning on the device. To use the
device, you must unlock the screen using the pattern, PIN, or password you set when
registering the fingerprint. Be careful not to forget your pattern, PIN, or password.
If your fingerprint is not recognised, unlock the device using the pattern, PIN,
or password you set when registering the fingerprint, and then your re-register
fingerprints. If your pattern, PIN, or password is forgotten, you will not be able to
use the device if you do not reset it. Samsung is not responsible for any data loss or
inconvenience caused by forgotten unlock codes.
If you change the screen lock method to
Swipe
or
None
, which are not secure, all of
your biometric data will be deleted. If you want to use your biometric data in apps or
features, you must register your biometric data again.
For better fingerprint recognition
When you scan your fingerprints on the device, be aware of the following conditions that
may affect the features performance:
The device may not recognise fingerprints that are affected by wrinkles or scars.
The device may not recognise fingerprints from small or thin fingers.
To improve recognition performance, register fingerprints of the hand used most often to
perform tasks on the device.
The Side key has a fingerprint recognition sensor. Ensure that the fingerprint built-in
recognition sensor is not scratched or damaged by metal objects, such as coins, keys, and
necklaces.
Covering the fingerprint recognition sensor with protective films, stickers, or other
accessories may decrease the fingerprint recognition rate. If the fingerprint recognition
sensor is initially covered with a protective film, remove it before using the fingerprint
recognition sensor.
Ensure that the fingerprint recognition sensor and your fingers are clean and dry.
Settings
95
If you bend your finger or use a fingertip, the device may not recognise your fingerprints.
Make sure to cover the entire fingerprint recognition sensor with your finger.
In dry environments, static electricity can build up in the device. Avoid using this feature
in dry environments or before using the feature, discharge static electricity by touching a
metal object.
