Details
A mains powered fan heater available in two colours white and black fitted with a two pin plug and supplied with a separate 3 pin travel adaptor.
The product presents a serious risk of electric shock as the heater plastic cover can easily be removed providing access to live or hot parts. Consequently, a user could touch live/moving parts, or the heating element hot surface, and could suffer an electric shock or burns. Additionally, the equipment was not fitted with an approved three pin plug. The instructions supplied with the product were inadequate as they did not contain sufficient information to ensure the correct and safe use of the equipment.
The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016.
