Lighting chain - 8 Funkcios – 100 L Darabos
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
This lighting chain with 100 lamps and an 8-function flashing unit poses an electric shock hazard due to multiple safety defects. The basic insulated parts are accessible to users, the wire connections have insufficient insulation with only single insulation applied rather than proper double insulation, the wire core cross-section is smaller than required by standards, the cable entry points have sharp edges that can damage wires, and the cord lacks proper anchorage. The product fails to meet European safety requirements under the Low Voltage Directive and EN 60598 standard.
Authorities have ordered the product withdrawn from the market and recalled from consumers. The record does not specify what actions affected consumers should take in response to this recall.
