Infantino baby sling carrier - slingrider — suffocation risk

Hazard

The product poses a risk of suffocation for babies in the first few months of life (younger than four months of age) because there is the possibility that (i) the sling’s fabric can press against an infant’s nose and mouth, blocking the baby’s breathing and suffocating a baby, and (ii) where the sling keeps the infant in a curled position bending the chin toward the chest, the airways can be restricted, limiting the oxygen supply.

Measures taken

• Voluntary withdrawal from the market and recall from consumers by the importer — Other
