The wiring to the switches has been routed too close to the grille at the top of the heater giving inadequate protection against accidental contact with basic insulation;- the front cover does not withstand the pull test and became unlatched at a force of 21.7N. This allowed access to internal wiring and terminals.This product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive.
