14、nformation relevant to consumers Guidelines for standard developers” and ISO/IEC Guide 50 “Safety aspects - Guidelines for child safety” have been taken into consideration. PD CEN/TR 13387-5:2015CEN/TR 13387-5:2015 (E) 4 1 Scope Product information given in standards has a direct impact on safety. I
15、t should contribute to avoiding risks to the child.

16、should be made explicit and adequate warnings be given. All product information should be in the language(s) of the country in which the product is sold. It should be presented so that it is unambiguous, legible and easy to read and comprehend. A risk analysis should be applied to identify those haz
17、ards for which safety-related product information is required. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 2.1 product information texts and images that may accompany or be associated with a specific child use and care article Note 1 to entry

PD CEN/TR 13387-5:2015CEN/TR 13387-5:2015 (E) 5 Too much marking could obs
23、cure important safety information. If marking the product would not be possible (e.g. the product or parts of the product are too small) the information may be presented in an alternative way. However, additional efforts should be made to draw the users attention to the information but without the c
24、reation of a new risk. 3.2 Visible markings Markings indicating warnings should be visible when the product is being used. The following information should be marked on the product: specific warning sentences and symbols which are selected as the basis of the safety philosophy described in Clause 1
