Fire
The leak protection between the flexible rubber tubes and the metal pipes of
the fuel injection system is not adequate as a result of the material used
and due to excessively large tolerance limits for the diameter of the rubber
tubes. This can result in a gradual loss of fuel. If fuel escapes on a large
scale there is a risk of fire.

Injuries
The product poses a risk of injuries (entrapment and asphyxiation) because

guide rod is not re-inserted back into the brackets, the drop side may not

may become trapped in the gap between the mattress base and the drop side.

Electric
shock
The product poses a risk of electric shock because:
· The mains supply cable
is insulated with PVC instead of the standard polychloroprene. Due to
aging, environmental, mechanical, chemical or thermal effects the cable
insulation is therefore not sufficiently resistant and can become damaged
resulting in live parts of the cable becoming accessible.
· The mains supply cable
does not have a cord anchorage and therefore is not protected against
pulling and twisting which could cause the live cable ends to become
accessible.
The product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) and the
relevant European standard EN 60598.
