Testing against the requirements of EN 13869
Should the results of the documentary, physical and technical parameter checks
warrant the need for further testing against the requirements of EN 13869, a childpanel
test according to the standard would have to be undertaken. Please note that in
practice it will be rarely necessary to conduct child panel testing of lighters as testing
against the technical parameters should in most cases be sufficient to establish
whether a lighter can be considered child resistant or not.
