Utility lighters - Safety specification
 N JIS S 4802

Annotation

This Standard establishes requirements for utility lighters to ensure a reasonable degree of safety for normal use or reasonably foreseeable misuse of such lighters by users.

Utility lighters, being flame-producing devices, can, as do all flame sources, present a potential hazard to the user. This specification cannot eliminate all hazards, but is intended to minimize potential hazards of utility lighters to users.

This Standard covers all flame-producing consumer products commonly known as utility lighters (also known as grill lighters, fireplace lighters, lighting rods or gas matches), and similar devices, as defined in 2.6. Flame-producing products intended for igniting cigarettes, cigars, and pipes are specifically excluded from this safety specification.

NOTE 1 See JIS S 4801 for lighters intended for igniting cigarettes, cigars and pipes.

NOTE 2 The International Standard corresponding to this Standard and the symbol of degree of correspondence are as follows:

ISO 22702: 2003 Utility lighters—General consumer-safety requirements and Amendment 1:2008 (MOD)

The symbols which denote the degree of correspondence in the contents between the relevant International Standard and JIS are IDT (identical), MOD (modified), and NEQ (not equivalent) according to ISO/ IEC Guide 21-1.
