Reported risk: L'échelle ne peut pas être automatiquement verrouillée en position verticale comme requis pour une échelle de sécurité.

Risk Description (original English): The ladder cannot be automatically locked in upright position as required for a security ladder. The labelling of the product misleads parents to believe they can leave their children unattended, allowing children to enter the pool leading to a risk of drowning.
