Recall Details
Hazard
The product presents a risk of electric shock because it has poor quality connections with wires soldered directly to component tags. This could lead to metal parts of the product becoming live during use and giving the user an electric shock.
The product also presents a risk of fire as the plug fuse contains insufficient filler material (ballast) and therefore does not meet the requirements of BS 1362. This material ensures the safe operation of the product under fault conditions. Should a fault occur, without sufficient filler the plug may overheat and catch fire.
The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 or the Plugs & Sockets etc (Safety) Regulations 1994.
