The product's guard is in direct contact with the heating elements, making accessible parts very hot. This can cause burns if touched by a user, especially children. Also, the product is not correctly earthed, which means it can become live; users may then receive an electric shock when touching it. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and with the European standard EN 60335.
