CPSC · 00005 · published 1999-10-14

CPSC campaign 00005

Hazard

The lighters child-resistant mechanisms fail to meet the requirements of the Consumer Product Safety Act. Young children could ignite the lighters, presenting fire and burn hazards. Additionally, the lighters can leak fuel and remain on after consumers have used them, which also presents fire and burn hazards.

Remedy

Consumers should stop using these lighters immediately and return them to the store where purchased, for a full refund.
