The CPSC's urge comes weeks after Samsung recalled the phones and suspended sales following several reports of the phone's lithium-ion battery exploding and causing fires.
Koh Dong-jin, the company's president of mobile business, said Samsung confirmed 35 cases in which the battery exploded while being charged.

The CPSC is another agency advising consumers on use of the phones. The Federal Aviation Administration issued a statement Thursday saying that the phone may not be packed in airline passenger's bags and should not be brought on any flights or charged.
Samsung said anyone with the Note 7 may bring it in to swap for any phone, regardless of when they were bought.
