  "description": "Electric storage radiator with fire-clay core which permits smooth heat emission due to the full-area fire-clay storage core, which stores the heat and re-emits it evenly. Heating capacity of 500 watts – 3 000 watts. It is normally plugged into an earthed 230 V socket. A 16 amp fuse is needed for a heating capacity of 2 500 watts or above.",

  "risk_type": "Fire",
  "risk": "The product poses a risk of fire because the thermostat ceases to operate and \"gets stuck\" at high ambient temperatures and the product is no longer protected against overheating. The investigations led to the conclusion that, in the worst possible case, the thermostat could catch fire as a result of overheating of the built-in thermostat relay (radiator accessory).The product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) and the relevant European standards EN 60335 and EN 50366.",
