Unknown · Table heater – Garden Grill Gas heater

The product poses a risk of burns because: - there is no operating pressure on the appliance, - the type of regulator to be used, indicating in particular reduced pressure; information concerning the minimum distance between the appliance and the gas cylinder is missing in the installation and user instructions, - the burner is not accessible so it is not possible to light the burner safely. Several unsuccessful attempts can lead to an accumulation of unburned gas and subsequent successful ignition can cause a burst of flame; and a risk of CO poisoning because- there is no marking on the appliance about the pressure, which can cause deficient combustion leading to a build-up of CO, - CO concentration of the neutral combustion gases is 0.2189%, which exceeds the requirement of 0.2%. The product does not comply with the Gas Appliances Directive and the relevant European standard EN 14543.
