Hazard descriptionThis product presents a high chemical risk because the nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) battery compartment is not adequately secured, making the battery easily accessible to children. If a child accesses and removes the battery, there is a risk that, if the battery is damaged or has deteriorated with age, it may leak hazardous electrolytes. Ingestion or contact with these chemicals can result in poisoning or serious injury.
