What is this? This is a small night-light that plugs into a wall socket. It has a light sensor that turns the light on when it gets dark.

What's happening? The plastic cover can come loose from the base. This leaves two metal parts inside the socket that carry electricity. Someone could touch them and get a shock.

Does this affect me? If you have this night-light in Germany, it could affect you. The problem is with the way it is made.

What should I do? Stop using it right away. Ask a pharmacist or doctor if you need help finding a safe replacement.
