The Watch I Did It For You OnlineFAA released a statement Thursday urging passengers not to turn on or plug in their Samsung Galaxy Note7 devices while traveling on airplanes.
After reports of the phone's batteries exploding began rolling in, Samsung issued a recall of the Galaxy Note7 that allowed customers to swap the device for a replacement.
But not all customers have had a chance to swap their phones. And following the news of the recall, the FAA issued a statement clarifying the guidelines of using the device while traveling.
In a statement posted on Twitter, the FAA explained that in light of recent incidents and safety concerns, it strongly advises passengers not use or charge the Galaxy Note7 while on board an aircraft. It is also suggested that the devices not be stored in any checked baggage.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
Though the FAA urges passengers to take precautions, the phone has not officially been banned from aircraft.
Mashable reached out to the FAA and the Consumer Product Safety Commission for comment and will update this article once we receive a response.
