5. Toxicological and hygienic indicators.

5.1. Toys intended for children under 3 years of age, as well as toys that are functionally in contact with the child's oral cavity, should not have an irritating effect on the mucous membranes.

5.2. Toys should not have a local skin-irritating effect or the toxicity index of toys, determined in an aqueous medium (distilled medium), should be in the range from 70 to 120% inclusive, in the air environment-from 80 to 120% inclusive.

6. Microbiological indicators.

6.1. The microbiological parameters of toys must correspond to those specified in Table 2.

The toy that poses the greatest danger to children and (or) to persons looking after them regarding the dangers should be accompanied by information about the dangers and measures taken when using the toy:

1. Toys that are not intended for children under the age of 3 years must have a conditional graphic designation with a warning indication of the age group. The conditional graphic designation is shown in Figure 1.

The elements of the conditional graphic designation must be fulfilled:

- circle and intersecting line-red or black;

- the background of the circle is white;

- the age group for which the toy is not intended, and the contours of the face are black.

The minimum diameter of the conventional graphic designation must be at least 10 mm.

2. Operational documents for suspended swings, slides for skating, rings, trapezoids, ropes and toys of similar purpose, having a crossbar, must contain installation requirements indicating the components that may pose a danger if improperly assembled and maintained.

3. A warning label " Attention! Use only under the direct supervision of adults."

The operating documents should contain precautions and instructions that if they are not followed, the users of the toy are exposed to danger.

The operating documents must contain instructions for storing toys out of the reach of children.

4. A chemical toy must have operational documents containing dangerous substances and reagents, instructions regarding the danger of their use and the need for users to take precautionary measures. The operational documents should contain information on the provision of first aid, as well as an indication of age-related targeting.

The label " Attention! Only for children over ... years old! Use only under the direct supervision of adults!". The age is indicated by the manufacturer.

5.A warning label "Contains a toy"must be applied to the packaging of a food product containing a toy.

6. Roller skates and skateboards, if they are sold as toys, must be accompanied by a warning inscription " Attention! It is recommended to wear protective equipment!".

Handling these toys requires certain skills. The operating document should contain instructions on how to use the toy carefully in order to avoid injury caused by a fall or collision, as well as instructions on the use of protective equipment (protective helmets, gloves, knee pads, elbow shields, etc.).

7. Toys for playing on the water should be accompanied by the inscription " Attention! Use in shallow water only under the supervision of adults!"

8. On the consumer packaging and (or) in the operating instructions for magnetic toys, with the exception of toys with functional magnets located in electrical or electronic parts of toys, a warning inscription should be indicated as follows:

"Attention! It contains loose magnets and magnetic elements. Use only under the direct supervision of adults. If the magnets and magnetic elements have been swallowed, it is necessary to seek medical help.".
