Safety and Handling

WARNING: Failure to follow these safety instructions could result in fire, electric shock, injury, or damage to the MagSafe Duo Charger or other property. Read all the safety information below before using the MagSafe Duo Charger.

Liquid Exposure
Keep the MagSafe Duo Charger away from sources of liquid, such as drinks, oils, lotions, sinks, bathtubs, and shower stalls.
Protect the MagSafe Duo Charger from dampness, humidity, or wet weather, such as rain, snow, and fog.

Power

Provide power to the MagSafe Duo Charger using the included cable and Apple- branded compatible power adapters, or third-party power adapters that are compliant with applicable country regulations and international and regional safety standards, including the Standard for Safety of Information Technology Equipment (IEC 60950-1) and the Standard for Safety of Audio/Video, Information and Communication Technology Equipment (IEC 62368-1). Other adapters may not meet applicable safety standards, and using them could pose a risk of death or injury.

Recommended Power Adapter Specifications

Frequency: 50 to 60 Hz, single phase
Line Voltage: 100 to 240 VAC
Output Voltage/Current: 9VDC/2.2A
Minimum Power Output: 20W
Output Port: USB-C

Don’t use the MagSafe Duo Charger or the USB-C power adapter in wet locations, such as near a sink, bathtub, or shower stall, and don’t connect or disconnect them with wet hands. Disconnect the MagSafe Duo Charger, its cable, and the power adapter if any of the following conditions exist: You want to clean the MagSafe Duo Charger or the power adapter; the power cord or plug becomes frayed or otherwise damaged; the MagSafe Duo Charger, its cable, or the power adapter is exposed to rain, excessive moisture, or liquid; or the MagSafe Duo Charger, its cable, or the power adapter has been dropped, damaged, or you suspect that service or repair is required. When you use the USB-C power adapter, make sure the cable is fully inserted into the power adapter before you plug the adapter into a power outlet.

When using the MagSafe Duo Charger, remove metallic cases and avoid placing metallic foreign objects on it (for example, keys, coins, batteries, or jewelry), as they may interfere with charging or become warm enough to cause discomfort or injury if your skin comes into contact with them. Don’t place any item with an RFID tag (for example, a contactless credit card, passport, or access card) on the MagSafe Duo Charger, because the RFID tag could be damaged.

Prolonged Heat Exposure

The MagSafe Duo Charger and its cable comply with the applicable surface- temperature standards and limits defined by the International Standard for Safety of Information Technology Equipment (IEC 60950-1) and the Standard for Safety of Audio/Video, Information and Communication Technology Equipment (IEC 62368-1). However, even within these limits, sustained contact with warm surfaces for long periods of time may cause discomfort or injury. Use common sense to avoid situations where your skin is in contact with the MagSafe Duo Charger, the power adapter, or devices on the MagSafe Duo Charger when itʼs operating or connected to a power source for long periods of time. For example, donʼt sleep on the MagSafe Duo Charger, the power adapter, or devices on the MagSafe Duo Charger, or place them under a blanket, pillow, or your body, when it’s connected to a power source.

It is important to keep the MagSafe Duo Charger and the power adapter in a well-ventilated area when in use or charging. Take special care if you have a physical condition that affects your ability to detect heat against the body.

Repairing

Donʼt attempt to repair the MagSafe Duo Charger yourself.
Disassembling the MagSafe Duo Charger may damage it or cause injury to you. If the MagSafe Duo Charger is damaged or malfunctions, discontinue use and contact Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider.

Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy

The radiated output power of the MagSafe Duo Charger meets applicable radio frequency exposure limits.
The MagSafe Duo Charger should be operated with a minimum separation distance of 20 cm (8 inches) between the MagSafe Duo Charger, or any devices on the MagSafe Duo Charger, and a person’s body.

Medical Device Interference

The MagSafe Duo Charger contains magnets and radios that emit electromagnetic fields. These electromagnetic fields may interfere with medical devices, such as pacemakers and defibrillators. Consult your physician and medical device manufacturer for information specific to your medical device and whether you need to maintain a safe distance of separation between your medical device and the MagSafe Duo Charger. If you suspect the MagSafe Duo Charger is interfering with your medical device, stop using the MagSafe Duo Charger.
