Unknown · Bumper Car

The toy breaks easily, generating small parts (the black rotating wheel). A small child may put them in the mouth and choke. In addition, the peak sound pressure level is too high which might lead to temporary impairment of hearing if the toy is operated close to the ear for a long time. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive and the relevant European standard EN 71-1.
