The separated squeaking mechanisms of the toys fit completely in the test cylinder for small parts. -chemical risk because the soft plastic contains more than 0.1 % by weight of di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP): -9.86 ± 0.46 % by weight in pink plastic; - 8.24 ± 0.42 % by weight in yellow plastic; -9.65 ± 0.47 % by weight in white plastic.
