Phone triggering sleep mode-kobo glo HD

In, just out of curiosity-today i discovered that when i put my phone(one plus 2) under my kobo glo hd, the e-reader goes into sleep mode. Why does it happen? And can it harm the device?
Thanks in advance&sorry for bad English(:

Your phone or phone case has a magnet that triggers sleep mode of the Glo HD. The solution is keep the phone away from the Glo HD.

Can it harm the kobo somehow?
I always put them together by accident

And if you are not using a sleep cover, you can disable the behavior in settings.
