Furthermore, a short-circuit of the insulation between the components at different polarities causes the batteries to overheat beyond the permissible limit. The product does not comply with the Toy safety directive and with the relevant European standards EN 62115 and EN 71-1 According to the REACH Regulation the phthalates DEHP, DBP and BBP are prohibited in all toys and childcare articles, while phthalates DINP, DIDP and DNOP are prohibited in toys or childcare articles that can be placed in the mouth by children.
