Hazard
皇冠体育app product presents a serious risk of electric shock because the transformer was of a poor build quality and did not meet the requirements of creepage and clearance. 皇冠体育app plug face also did not meet the dimensional requirements of the relevant standard, meaning users can access live pins when plugging in, or unplugging, the plug from the socket. 皇冠体育app fuse was also considered counterfeit and did not contain a ballast, preventing it from performing as required under fault conditions.
皇冠体育app product was also found to have a speed greater than the maximum permissible level, and functions purely as a twist-and-go without pedalling, as a motorbike.
皇冠体育app product requires improvements to marking, labelling and documentation.
皇冠体育app product does not meet the requirements of the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 or the Plugs & Sockets (Safety) Regulations 1994.
