Hazard

The sound pressure level is too high (measured value up to: 118.6 dB). This could lead to partial loss of hearing, when the product is used. Furthermore, the toy releases small parts; a child may put them in the mouth and choke. The protruding shape of the toy keys is not compliant for children unable to sit unaided; they could lose balance and choke or suffer injuries. Finally, the plastic foil bag is too thin and poses a suffocation risk. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive and with the European standard EN 71-1.
