Why it was recalled
The products do not comply with the mandatory safety standard for products containing button/coin batteries . The battery compartment does not contain a captive screw designed to ensure the compartment is resistant to being opened by children. The battery compartment may also not be adequately secured so button batteries may be accessible.
Hazard
A battery compartment that does not contain a captive screw or is not adequately secured can result in the screw being lost. When a battery compartment is not adequately secured, one or more button batteries may be easily accessible. If young children gain access to button batteries and ingest them, they are likely to suffer severe internal burn injuries, which can result in serious injury or death. Button batteries also pose a choking hazard to young children.
