Quick checklist
- Use intact outlets, chargers and cables.
- Keep charging equipment cool, dry and uncovered.
- Disconnect damaged or unusually hot accessories.
Safe habits begin before plugging in
Inspect the wall outlet, adapter and cable before use. Loose plugs, exposed wire, cracks, swelling or burn marks require attention. A charger should be used according to the phone and accessory manufacturers' instructions, not modified to fit an unsuitable outlet.
Ventilation and temperature
Do not cover an adapter or phone with bedding while charging. Keep equipment away from direct sun, heaters, water and flammable material. Some warmth can occur, but abnormal heat, smell or deformation is a reason to disconnect safely.
Extensions and surge protection
A damaged or overloaded extension board can be dangerous. Use equipment suitable for the electrical load and local installation. A product labelled surge protector should have verifiable specifications; the label alone is not a guarantee.
Choose compatible accessories
Match the charger, cable and device. Cheap or unknown replacements may omit important information, but brand alone is also not enough—verify the exact product, seller and warranty. Keep purchase records in case support is needed.
Frequently asked questions
Should I keep using a charger that becomes very hot?
Disconnect it safely and have the charger, cable and outlet checked before further use.
Is charging under a pillow safe?
No. Covered devices can trap heat and should be kept on a stable, ventilated surface.
Does a higher wattage charger damage every phone?
Compatible systems negotiate power, but the exact charger, cable and device specifications must match.
