Drowning
This product poses a serious risk of drowning because it is a 50-newton buoyancy aid but is marketed as a life jacket. This raised the possibility of it being used in inappropriate circumstances, which would cause drowning hazard. This product does not comply with the Personal Protective Equipment Directive and the relevant European standard. |
