Reported risk: This product presents a serious risk of electric shock because the product did not require tools to access the live parts, leaving them easily accessible. If the user plugs the product in, it may develop a fault due to being inadequately fused. Due to the easy access of the live parts, the fault with the product may then lead to a fire, or the user receiving an electric shock. The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016.
What to do

Check whether your product matches this notice (name, batch, dates). If it does, stop using it and follow the instructions in the official notice — refund, return, repair or disposal are set by the issuing authority and the business, and they differ per recall.
