SEOUL, April 17 (UPI) -- South Korea’s government consumer agency asked the Korean division of Apple, Inc. to warn customers that they could sustain burns from using the battery recharging cable of the iPhone 5.
The Korea Consumer Agency said that since 2013, there have been three reports of second- to third-degree burns to users of the “lightning cable” -- a wire used to transmit data and charge the iPhone 5 battery.
