Additional Information from Source Data
The recall notice includes two images: one showing the front of the recalled Lil’ Buddies Pet Laser Toy package, and one showing the back of the package. The recall notice title indicates the recall is due to a risk of serious injury or death from battery ingestion hazard and that the product violates the mandatory standard for consumer products with button cell batteries. The recall notice also includes a hazard description that references a Montessori toy set with an airplane-shaped teething toy; however, that hazard description appears to be a data entry error in the source record, as it does not match the product name, description, or recall title for this specific recall. The only hazard explicitly stated in the recall title and product description for this recall is the button cell battery ingestion hazard. No other hazards are specified for this product in the source data.
