BS EN 71-2:2011+A1:2014EN 71-2:2011+A1:2014 (E) 6 Introduction This European Standard aims at reducing as far as possible those hazards which are not evident to users; it does not cover inherent hazards that are obvious to children or the persons in charge of them. Assuming that
34、 the toys are used in the intended manner, they should not present any further hazard to children for whom they are intended (according to the Directive 2009/48/EC “intended for use by” means that a parent or supervisor shall reasonably be able to assume by virtue of the functions, dimensions and ch
35、aracteristics of a toy that it is intended for use by children of the stated age group). Allowance should also be made for foreseeable use, bearing in mind the behaviour of children who do not generally share the same degree of care as the average adult user. As a general rule, toys are designed and
36、 manufactured for particular ages of children. Their characteristics are related to the age and stage of development of the children, and their use presupposes certain aptitudes. Accidents are frequently due to a toy either being given to a child for whom it is not intended, or being used for a purp
37、ose other than that for which it was designed. Great care should therefore be taken when choosing a toy or game; account should be taken of the mental and physical development of the child who will be using it. The requirements of this European Standard do not release parents or carers from their re
38、sponsibility of watching over the child while he or she is playing. BS EN 71-2:2011+A1:2014EN 71-2:2011+A1:2014 (E) 7 1 Scope (see A.2) This European Standard specifies the categories of flammable materials which are prohibited in all toys, and requirements concerning flammability of certain toys wh
39、en they are subjected to a small source of ignition. The test methods described in Clause 5 are used for the purposes of determining the flammability of toys under the particular test conditions specified. The test results thus obtained cannot be considered as providing an overall indication of the
40、potential fire hazard of toys or materials when subjected to other sources of ignition. This European Standard includes general requirements relating to all toys and specific requirements and methods of test relating to the following toys, which are considered as being those presenting the greatest
41、hazard: toys to be worn on the head: beards, moustaches, wigs, etc. made from hair, pile or material with similar features; masks; hoods, head-dresses, etc.; flowing elements of toys to be worn on the head, but excluding paper novelty hats of the type usually supplied in party crackers; toy disguise
42、 costumes and toys intended to be worn by a child in play; toys intended to be entered by a child; soft-filled toys. NOTE Additional requirements for flammability of electric toys are specified in EN 62115. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the applicati
