What is this? An EMOS brand extension cord has wires that are too thin. This can make the cord get too hot, start a fire, or give you an electric shock.
What's happening? The thin wires may overheat when used. The insulation could melt, exposing live parts that can shock you.
Does this affect me? If you live in Lithuania, Latvia, or Slovenia and own this EMOS extension cord, you could be at risk.
What should I do? Stop using the cord right away. Ask a store or electrician for a safe replacement. Talk to a professional before using any extension cord again.
