CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY

COMMISSION

[CPSC Docket No. 01–2]

Quantum North America, Inc., and e4L,

Inc.; Complaint

AGENCY: Consumer Product Safety

Commission.

ACTION: Publication of a complaint

under the Consumer Product Safety Act.

SUMMARY: Under provisions of its Rules

of Practice for Adjudicative Proceeding

(16 CFR Part 1025), the Consumer

Product Safety Commission must

publish in the Federal Register

Complaints which it issues. Published

below is a Complaint in the matter of

Quantum North America, Inc., and e4L,

Inc.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The text of

the Complaint appears below.

Dated: May 31, 2001.

Todd A. Stevenson,

Deputy Secretary.

Complaint

Nature of Proceedings

1. This is an administrative

proceeding pursuant to section 15 of the

Consumer Product Safety Act (‘‘CPSA’’),

15 U.S.C. 2064; for public notification

and remedial action to protect the

public from substantial risks of injury

presented by the Red Devil gas grill.

This proceeding is governed by the

Rules of Practice for Adjudicative

Proceedings before the Consumer

Product Safety Commission, 16 CFR

part 1025.

Jurisdiction

2. This proceeding is instituted

pursuant to the authority contained in

sections 15(c), (d) and (f) of the CPSA,

15 U.S.C. 2064(c), (d) and (f).

Parties

3. Complaint counsel is the staff of the

Legal Division of the Office of

Compliance of the U.S. Consumer

Product Safety Commission, an

independent regulatory commission

established by section 4 of the CPSA. 15

U.S.C. 2053.

4. Respondent Quantum North

America, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as

‘‘Quantum’’) is a Delaware Corporation,

with its principal place of business

located at 15821 Ventura Boulevard,

Encino, California.

5. Respondent, e4L, Inc. (hereinafter

referred to as ‘‘e4L’’) is a Delaware

Corporation, with its principal place of

business located at 15821 Ventura

Boulevard, Encino, California.

6. Quantum and e4L are

‘‘manufacturers’’ of consumer products

as that term is defined in the CPSA, 15

U.S.C. 2052(a)(4). Quantum and e4L

manufactured the Red Devil gas grill.

The Consumer Product

7. The Red Devil gas grill was

produced and distributed specifically

for sale to or use by consumers as an

outdoor cooking appliance in or around

a permanent or temporary residence.

These gas grills are ‘‘consumer

products’’ that were ‘‘distributed in

commerce.’’ 15 U.S.C. 2052(a)(1)(i) and

(ii).

Defect

8. Paragraphs 1 through 7 are hereby

realleged, and incorporated by reference

as though fully set forth herein.

9. The Red Devil gas grill connects to

a propane gas container. A plastic

locking mechanism sits atop a

collapsible three legged stand. A top

threaded venturi tube, which contains

four (4) symmetrical air intake openings,

is placed through the underside of a

plastic locking mechanism, and is

vertically locked into place by flipping

a handle. The lower end of the venturi

tube is attached to a gas regulator. A

burner pan is then placed on top of the

venturi tube.

10. The Red Devil gas grill design

leads consumers to light the grill at the

air intake openingS on the venturi tube.

If the grill is lit at this location, the

consumer is igniting the combustible

gas inside the tube. The grill will appear

to function as intended, however, the

venturi tube will reach temperatures up

to 750°F.

Federal Register / Vol. 66, No. 109 / Wednesday, June 6, 2001 / Notices 30431

11. The plastic locking mechanism

will melt and deform when subject to

temperatures over 230°F. When the

plastic deforms it allows the grill to

collapse and fall to the ground.

12. Each Red Devil gas grill is

packaged with an instruction booklet.

Said booklet calls for the grill to be lit

at the burner.

13. The instruction booklet, referred

to in paragraph 12, does not contain an

illustration that shows the consumer

where to properly light the grill. Said

booklet also does not warn consumers of

the danger in lighting the grill at the

venturi opening. It is also foreseeable

that this booklet will not remain with

the grill.

14. The features of the Red Devil gas

grill, as set forth in paragraphs 9

through 11 above, constitute design

defects under 15 U.S.C. 2064.

15. The failure to provide adequate

instructions on how to light the Red

Devil gas grill, or to warn consumers

about the danger in lighting the grill at

the venturi opening, as set forth in

paragraph 12 and 13 above, constitutes

a defect under 15 U.S.C. 2064.

2. Substantial Risk of Injury

16. All of the approximately 155,544

Red Devil gas grills have the same

venturi tube and plastic locking

mechanism design. It is foreseeable that

consumers will light the grill at the

venturi openings. Each grill has the

potential to cause a severe burn injury.

17. If the Red Devil gas grill tips over,

following the melting of the plastic

locking mechanism, flames from the

burner may ignite surrounding

combustibles. This could cause severe

burns or death to nearby consumers. It

is also reasonably foreseeable that a

consumer who is present would attempt

to catch the falling grill, and receive

severe burns to his or her hands or other

body parts.

18. The defects in the Red Devil gas

grill create a substantial risk of injury to

consumers, within the meaning of

section 15(a)(2) of the CPSA, 15 U.S.C.

2064(a)(2).

19. The Red Devil gas grill presents a

substantial product hazard, as described

in sections 15(a)(2), (c) and (d) of the

CPSA, 15 U.S.C. 2064(a)(2), (c) and (d).

Relief Sought

Wherefore, in the public interest,

Complaint Counsel requests that the

Commission:

A. Determine that Respondents’

Quantum and e4L Red Devil gas grill

presents a ‘‘substantial product hazard’’

within the meaning of section 15(a)(2) of

the CPSA, 15 U.S.C. 2064(a)(2).

B. Determine that public notification

under section 15(c) of the CPSA, 15

U.S.C. 2064(c), is required to protect the

public adequately from the substantial

product hazard presented by the Red

Devil gas grill which has been

distributed and order that the

Respondents:

(1) Give prompt public notice that the

Red Devil gas grill presents an injury

and fire hazard to consumers and of the

remedies available to remove the risk of

injury;

(2) Mail such notice to each person

who is or has been a distributor or

retailer of the Red Devil gas grill;

(3) Mail such notice to every person

to whom Respondents know the Red

Devil gas grill were delivered or sold;

and

(4) Include in the notice required by

(1), (2) and (3) above a complete

description of the hazard presented, a

warning to stop using the Red Devil gas

grill immediately; and clear instructions

to inform consumers how to avail

themselves of any remedy ordered by

the Commission.

C. Determine that action under

section 15(d) of the CPSA, 15 U.S.C.

2064(d), is in the public interest and

order Respondents:

(1) To elect to repair all the Red Devil

gas grills so they will not create an

injury and fire hazard; to replace all the

Red Devil gas grills with a like or

equivalent product which will not

create an injury or fire hazard; or to

refund to consumers the purchase price

of the Red Devil gas grill;

(2) To make no charge to consumers

and to reimburse them for any

foreseeable expenses incurred in

availing themselves of any remedy

provided under any order issued in this

matter;

(3) To reimburse distributors and

dealers for expenses in connection with

carrying out any Commission Order

issued in this matter;

(4) To submit a plan satisfactory to the

Commission, within ten (10) days of

service of the final Order, directing that

actions specified in paragraph C(1)

through C(3) above be taken in a timely

manner;

(5) To submit monthly reports

documenting progress of the corrective

action program;

(6) For a period of five (5) years after

entry of a Final Order in this matter, to

keep records of its actions taken to

comply with paragraphs C(1) through

C(3) above, and to supply these records

upon request to the Commission for the

purpose of monitoring compliance with

the Final Order;

(7) To notify the Commission at least

60 days prior to any change in their

business (such as incorporation,

dissolution, assignment, sale or petition

for bankruptcy) that results in, or is

intended to result in, the emergence of

successor ownership, the creation or

dissolution of subsidiaries, going out of

business, or any other change that might

affect compliance obligations under a

Final Order issued by the Commission;

and

(8) To take such other and further

actions as the Commission deems

necessary to protect the public health

and safety and to comply with the

CPSA.

Issued by order of the Commission.
