The hazard
The internal electrical conductors are protected only by simple insulation and may come into contact with accessible metal parts. Moreover, the conductors are held in place only by a weld and may, as a result of wear and tear over time, become detached and slide into an opening on the hair-straightening irons, thereby making live parts accessible to the user. The user can therefore access live parts and receive an electric shock. This product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive.
