Risk Description

null The cross-sectional area of the internal and external cores is too small and the wires may overheat. The battery compartment cover can be removed easily and live parts may become accessible. Live parts of the mains cable can be touched since the dimensions of the socket outlet and the flat plug are not suitable. The plastic part near the pins is not sufficiently resistant to heat and fire and may therefore catch fire. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60598.
