Hazard

The Hungarian distributor has replaced the English type of the plug, in such a way that the end of the protective earth was cut off instead of connecting it into the plug. Therefore the continuity of the protective earth is broken in the plug. The protective earth was not connected with the earth contact. The dimensions of the earth contact are less than the minimum required value. Moreover, the Hungarian instructions for use are different from the foreign version in its content. Certain warnings are also missing. This product does not comply with the LVD Directive and the relevant European Standards.
