Risk Description
This product poses a serious risk of: - choking because the handle of the pacifier can detach by applying low force, become accessible and completely fits into the small parts cylinder; - suffocation because the cord of the pacifiers is longer than allowed by the relevant standard. Taking into account the usual behaviour of children, the detachable handle poses a risk of choking, while the too long cord poses a risk of strangulation to children under 3 years. The product does not comply with the relevant European standard EN 71-1.
