Live metal parts are accessible through the protective grill of the nozzle. The mains cable of the hair dryer is not secured properly against pulling and twisting and could be pulled out. The dimensions of the plug are substantially less than required and therefore the user may touch the pin of the plug during connecting. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60335.
