What is the danger
The product poses a risk of electric shock because, with time, the plastic on the screw domes deteriorate and become fragile. Therefore, if a certain pressure is applied, the handle of the appliance may open and when the plug of the cord is inserted in the mains supply, live parts may be accessible to the user. The product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive.
