que l’appareil. Les tout petits,
les jeunes enfants ou les adultes
peuvent subir des brûlures s’ils
viennent en contact avec la sur-
face chaude. Il est recommandé
d’installer une barrière physique
si des personnes à risques habi-
tent la maison. Pour empêcher
l’accès à un foyer ou à un poêle,
installez une barrière de sécu-
rité; cette mesure empêchera les
tout petits, les jeunes enfants et
toute autre personne à risque
d’avoir accès à la pièce et aux
surfaces chaudes.
