Danger: The plug pins are too close to the periphery of the plug. Users can receive an electric shock from accessible live parts when plugging or unplugging the plug from the socket.

The plug is a ‘clover-style’ plug, which provides insufficient protection against the risk of fire as it is inadequately earthed. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive.
