## What is wrong

A POSSIBILITY EXISTS THAT IF THE CIGAR LIGHTER IS DEPRESSED, ENGAGING THE HEATING ELEMENT, THE LIGHTER MAY NOT AUTOMATICALLY "POP OUT" OR DISENGAGE.  IF THE LIGHTER DOES NOT DISENGAGE, THE HEATING ELEMENT MAY CONTINUE TO HEAT TO TEMPERATURES WHICH COULD CAUSE A FIRE, AND MAY IGNITE ADJACENT MATERIALS.
