Hazard

The product poses a risk of damage to hearing because the flashover of the ignition is too fast and the start of the function is almost immediate therefore the protective distance of 8 metres cannot be observed. The product poses a risk of burns because the 100-round firework rocket has two covered fuses instead of ignition cords (leading outwards). The product does not comply with the Directive 2007/23/EC on pyrotechnic articles and the relevant European standard EN 15947.

Product description

Fireworks with a 100-round battery-powered Flowerbed, five simultaneous, loud bangs with a silver bouquet and a very loud round of fire. The product is sold in colourful packaging with a pattern and black print.
