USB Charging Adapter - White

Important safety notice for chargers in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2023/988 on general product safety (GPSR)

This is a targeted safety notice for the correct and safe use of chargers (power adapters, car chargers, wireless chargers, and desktop charging modules, USB-A/USB-C including fast charging). As these are electrical devices that can heat up and operate at high power, follow the instructions below to avoid electric shock, fire, and device damage.

Basic safety and handling principles

• Keep out of reach of children: The charger is not a toy; there is a risk of electric shock and burns from hot parts.
• Water and moisture: Do not use with wet hands or in damp environments; protect from rain and condensation unless the manufacturer states resistance.
• Undamaged parts: Do not use if the cable, connector, socket, or casing is damaged; if you smell smoke or overheating occurs, disconnect immediately.
• Ventilation: Do not cover the charger or place it on soft or flammable surfaces; ensure free airflow.

Proper and safe use

• Compatibility and performance: Use a charger and cable with parameters suitable for your device (voltage, current, power); avoid incompatible fast charging protocols.
• Wireless chargers: Remove metal objects, payment cards, and magnetic accessories between the phone and the charging pad; stop charging if excessive heating occurs.
• Car chargers: Route cables away from controls and airbags; do not use in sockets with loose contacts.
• Placement: Plug the charger directly into the socket; do not use damaged splitters or overloaded multiple extension cords.
• Disconnecting: Pull by the plug, not the cable; disconnect from the power supply during extended absence.
• Specific restrictions: Do not use near oxygen therapy or flammable substances; do not place in direct sunlight or in enclosed spaces without ventilation.

Cleaning, maintenance, and storage

• Cleaning: Disconnect from the power supply before cleaning; wipe with a dry soft cloth. Do not use solvents or immerse in liquids.
• Cable maintenance: Do not bend at sharp angles, pull, or leave under tension in connectors; replace worn cables.
• Storage: Store in a dry and cool place, away from dust and direct sunlight; prevent compression and mechanical damage.

Specific health warnings

• Heat: Mild heating is normal; if the charger or device is hot to the touch, stop charging.
• Magnetic fields: Some wireless and magnetic systems may affect implanted medical devices; maintain the recommended distance and consult a doctor if in doubt.

Disposal

• Safe disposal: Do not dispose of electronics in municipal waste; hand them over to an electronic waste collection point. Cut damaged cables to prevent further use.

Incidents and contact

• In case of an incident (overheating, sparking, electric shock), immediately disconnect the product from power and seek medical assistance if necessary. Keep the product and proof of purchase for complaint processing.
