Toy flute
The mouthpiece of the flute detaches easily, generating a small part. A child may put it in the mouth and choke on it. The sound pressure level is too high (measured value: up to 117 dB) which could lead to permanent or temporary hearing loss. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive, nor with the European standard EN 71-1.
