What is this? This is a cheap pocket lighter made in China. It can shoot a tall flame and may burst into fire if it gets too hot. It also has no safety lock for children.

What's happening? Some of these lighters are being sold in Lithuania. They can hurt people or start fires because the flame is too big and the lighter can explode when hot.

Does this affect me? If you bought a PROFISA ICE HOUSE lighter in Lithuania, stop using it right away.

What should I do? Take the lighter back to the shop where you bought it. Ask your pharmacist or doctor if you have been burned.
