What happened

Toi-Toys has recalled a battery-operated toy mobile phone (Model N°5136, EAN 8714627851366) because it produces sound levels that exceed safe limits for toys used close to the ear. The product emits sound between 86.2 and 89.8 decibels, while the maximum permitted level for close-to-the-ear toys is 80 decibels. This non-compliance violates the European Toys Directive and the EN 71 standard, creating a risk of hearing damage.

The toy is a grey and blue plastic swivel-mounted phone approximately 8.5 cm x 4 cm, made in China, and comes with two additional covers in different color combinations. The product packaging is approximately 25 x 17 cm and bears a choking hazard warning and CE mark. Authorities have ordered a sales ban and withdrawal of the product from the market. The recall record does not specify what consumers who possess this product should do.
