Hazard

The power lead is not securely anchored to the electronic unit and sufficiently secured against pulling out. The insulation of the power lead is inadequate. The structure of the cord extension allows single-pole insertion of plugs. The dimensions of the main plug are too small. The user could consequently touch live parts and receive an electric shock. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive nor with the European standard EN 60598.
