⚠️ Risk

null The product poses a risk of electric shock because:- The wire ends soldered to the terminals of the control unit and the rice lamps are not adequately protected against pulling and twisting.- The accessible wires have only basic insulation and they come into contact with sharp edges of flashing switch and control unit. In case of damage, the live metal wires become accessible.- The dimensions of the plug are substantially less than required therefore the user may touch the pin of the plug during connection.The product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60598.
