The chargers pose a risk of electric shock because the insulation is not sufficient and the clearance /creepage distances between the primary and secondary circuits are not sufficient. The products do not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60065.
The sockets do not have shutters to prevent access to live parts. The product does not comply with the requirements of the relevant national standard.
The electrical insulation is not sufficient and a short-circuit could occur, causing the user to receive an electric shock. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60950.
The electrical insulation is not sufficient and a short-circuit could occur, causing the user to receive an electric shock. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60950.
The rubber coating on the portable plug socket cable contains 4,7% by weight short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs). The placing on the market and use of articles containing SCCPs is banned. SCCPs persist in the environment, are toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations and bioaccumulate in wildlife and humans, posing a risk to human health and the environment. The product does not comply with the Regulation on persistent organic pollutants (POP Regulation).
The plastic in the cables contains up to 1,7% by weight short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs). The placing on the market and use of articles containing SCCPs is banned. SCCPs persist in the environment, are toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations and bioaccumulate in wildlife and humans, posing a risk to human health and the environment. The product does not comply with the Regulation on persistent organic pollutants (POP Regulation).
The instructions contain no information concerning safe use. Consequently, the laser could cause permanent injury to the eyes of users. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60825-1.
In certain circumstances, due to water ingress behind the control panel, a short circuit can be created which causes the chrome decal to become live and users may experience a mild electric shock. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive One incident reported.
Neither the operating instructions nor the product itself indicate how the product is to be properly connected to the electricity network. If the electricity is switched off before installation, as the operating instructions require, but the device is not connected properly and the electricity switched on again, this may, under certain circumstances, cause an electric shock. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive.
