Hazard

The product poses a high risk of choking as when tested according to the tension test, the phone keys broke at a force of 10 N, releasing elements which fit entirely within the small parts cylinder. A young child may place the small parts into their mouth and block their airways. The cord of the handset has a length of 370mm, greater than the limit of 220mm which presents a strangulation hazard to young children. The product does not meet the requirements of the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011.
