Risk
his product poses a risk of suffocation and a child's fingers, extremities and head becoming trapped due to the dimensions of the accessible openings. In particular, the product contains the following non-compliances with the relevant standard EN 12221:- in access zone I (space within the baby's reach) there are openings accessible with a depth of more than 10 mm, into which a gauge of 5 mm diameter will fit contrary to 12 mm. This means that a child could insert a finger into these openings and get it trapped;- in access zone I there are openings accessible into which a cone of 65 mm diameter will fit, which means that there is a risk of the child's head, neck and torso becoming trapped; - in access zone II (space beyond the baby's reach) the test head fits through completely, but test head 2 does not fit through completely;- the labelling is defective.As the product is intended for very small children (babies), it poses a serious risk.
