According to the study ‘Digital 2023: Global Overview Report’, published by DataReportal, we spend, on average, about six hours and 37 minutes using our mobile devices day. However, many of the Actions that we carry out with them can endanger the user health. In that sense, Apple has a series of recommendations to avoid these problems when charging the device.
As you can read on Apple’s own website, the company recommends not “using damaged cables or chargers, or charging the device in high humidity conditions,” as it “can cause fire, electric shock, injury, or damage to the iPhone or other belongings.
“The iPhone is made of metal, glass, and plastic and has sensitive electronic components inside,” Apple reveals in the device’s User Manual. For this reason, we recommend charging the device with the charging cable that is included in your purchase or with an Apple USB power adapter, which is sold separately.
Cases in which we should stop using the USB adapter
However, to use a usb power adapter safely and reduce the possibility of injury or damage caused by excessive heat, Apple recommends “plugging the power adapter directly into a power outlet.” And it urges not to use “the power adapter in humid places, such as near a sink, bathtub or shower.” It also reveals some of the cases in which we should stop using the adapter.
The power adapter plug or pins are damaged.
The charging cable is frayed or otherwise damaged.
The power adapter has been exposed to excessive moisture, or liquid has been spilled inside.
The power adapter has been dropped and the case has been damaged.
Main recommendations when charging the device
Likewise, the company reveals that, during use or charging, “it is important to keep the iPhone, the charging cable, the power adapter or any wireless charger in a well-ventilated place” and that, when using a wireless chargerit is advisable to remove “the metal slings and avoid placing objectsmetallic on the charger (for example, keys, coins, batteries or jewelry), as they may become hot and interfere with charging.
On the other hand, Apple urges you to “use common sense” to prevent our skin from coming into contact with a device, your power adapter or a wireless charger “when operating or connected to a power source for extended periods. For example, do not sleep on a device, power adapter, or wireless charger, or place it under a blanket, pillow, or your body when it is connected to a power source. Above all, take extreme precautions if you suffer from any physical condition that prevents you from detecting heat in your body.
