Hazard

The product poses a risk of injuries because: - the plastic cap which is designed to hide the screws prevents the user from seeing if the screws are missing and, if this is the case, there is the danger that the handle detaches itself and the seat and child may fall;- the car seat may be clicked on to the frame of a pram but in some cases the mechanism does not fit correctly into the pram frame. This may cause the infant car seat to fall off the frame with the result that the child gets hurt.This product does not comply with the relevant European standard EN 12790.

Measures taken

  • Voluntary stop on sales and warning to retailers and customers — Other
