Don’t hold your phone, or use headphones plugged into the phone, while it is charging.
Lookout for exposed wires or a damaged cover on your charger or cord.
If your charger or cord is damaged, dispose of it and replace it with one that is suitable for your device and complies with Australian standards.
Your charger isn’t waterproof – keep it dry.
