What happened

TechnoStar electric toasters (Model T1000R / YT-2001A, serial numbers 10442xxxxx, produced in 2009) are being recalled due to a risk of electric shock. The white plastic two-slice toasters have insufficient protection against accidentally touching live parts when the plug is inserted into the socket, because the heating elements are connected to the phase. The toasters do not comply with the Low Voltage Directive or the European standard EN 60335.

The trader and importer are voluntarily withdrawing the product from the market and recalling units from consumers. The source does not specify what actions affected consumers should take to return or dispose of their toasters.
