The person told me that you're not supposed to use a charger, only a computer, that it must plug directly into the USB port on the computer (not using a hub), that the computer must be set so that it won't fall asleep during the charge, and that using a charger can void your warranty.
I charge my Kobo WiFi all the time using the adaptor for my iPod and the cable plugged into it. I've never gotten that message. I think you do have to remember to choose "Keep Reading" though - I forgot to choose that once and the light never changed to Blue.

Is your charger made by Apple?
