What is this? A hair dryer made by Trisa can overheat. Its plastic cover may melt and expose live wires.

What's happening? The melted plastic could let you touch dangerous electricity. This raises the risk of electric shock.

Does this affect me? Anyone using this hair dryer in Bulgaria might be at risk.

What should I do? Stop using it now. Ask a pharmacist or doctor if you feel a tingle or see sparks. Return the dryer to where you bought it.
