Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/ patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

Add the following new terminological entry:
ISO 8124-1:2014/FDAM 2:2017(E)

3.XX
paperboard
sheet formed by irregularly intervened cellulose fibres with a mass per unit area over 400 g/m ,
excluding pressed wooden fibreboards such as medium density fibreboard (MDF), chipboard and ma-
terials with similar properties
Note 1 to entry The term paperboard also includes materials commonly referred to as card or cardboard with a
mass per unit area over 400 g/m .
Note 2 to entry If paper or paperboard with polymeric lamination, or other treatments which may be resistant

Insert the following new paragraph in 4.4.1, (For children under 36 months) directly after the bullet list as
the second to last paragraph:
Additionally, toys, components of toys and removable components thereof made entirely of paperboard,
that do not fit entirely in the cylinder when tested in accordance with 5.2 (Small parts test), are exempt
from testing in accordance with 5.24 (Reasonably foreseeable abuse tests).
Modify the first paragraph of 4.16.1 and Figure 17 as follows:
4.16.1 Ventilation
Any toy, made of impermeable material and having a door or lid, which encloses a continuous volume
greater than 0,03 m and in which all internal dimensions are 150 mm or more, shall provide means for
breathing by the incorporation of unobstructed ventilation openings. These ventilation openings shall
consist of a minimum of either two openings, each having a total area of at least 650 mm and placed at
least 150 mm apart, or one opening which is the equivalent of the two 650 mm openings expanded to
include the separation area, provided this leaves opening areas of 650 mm on either side of a 150 mm
spacing (see Figure 17).
Dimensions in millimetres
Figure 17 — Example of an equivalent single ventilation opening
Modify the first paragraph and the last bullet point of 4.18.4.3 as follows:
4.18.4.3 Arrows (e.g. bow and arrow set)
2 © ISO 2017 – All rights reserved

ISO 8124-1:2014/FDAM 2:2017(E)

Projectiles in the form of an arrow with a kinetic energy greater than 0,08 J when tested according
to 5.15.1 (Kinetic energy of projectiles) shall have a maximum kinetic energy per area of contact not
greater than 2 500 J/m when determined in accordance with 5.15.1.3.3 (determination of kinetic
energy per area of contact).
— if the projectile is made of a resilient material and has a kinetic energy greater than 0,08 J when
tested according to 5.15.1, it shall continue to have a maximum kinetic energy per area of contact
not greater than 2 500 J/m2 when determined in accordance with 5.15.1.3.3.
Add the following new subclause:
4.32 Jaw entrapment in handles and steering wheels
4.32.1 See E.46. These requirements are intended to address potential jaw entrapment in handles and
steering wheels that are located such that they are accessible for teething in the following categories
of toys intended for children under 18 months of age: activity tables intended to be played with by a
standing child, large and bulky toys, stationary floor toys, toys intended to be pushed by a child walking
upright and ride-on toys.
4.32.2 Handles that are connected to the toy with a hinge and handles made from a pliable material (for
example, straps and ropes) are exempt from this requirement.
4.32.3 When tested in accordance with 5.38 (Jaw entrapment test), openings in handles and steering
wheels that allow the small test fixture to pass completely through shall also allow the large test fixture
to pass completely through.
Replace the existing 5.24.3 with the following:
5.24.3 Tip-over test for large and bulky toys
See E.3
Large and bulky toys shall not be tested according to 5.24.2 (Drop test), but in accordance with the
following procedure:
Place the toy on a horizontal surface, as prescribed in 5.24.2 (Drop test). Attempt to tip it over by
pushing it slowly past its centre of balance three times, one of which shall be in its most onerous
position. Gradually apply a force, which is not to exceed 120 N, in a horizontal direction and 1 500 mm
above the horizontal surface or at the top edge of the toy for toys less than 1 500 mm in height. A non-
resilient step with a height of (25 ± 2) mm shall be positioned such that it prevents sliding or rolling of
the toy during the test.
The original point of application relative to the toy shall be maintained, and the force shall remain
horizontal, throughout the test. The vertical position of the point of application relative to the horizontal
surface is permitted to increase during the test.
If a force greater than 120 N is required to bring the toy beyond its centre of balance, or if the vertical
position of the point of application, relative to the horizontal surface, exceeds 1 800 mm, the tip-over
test shall be stopped. The test shall also be stopped if the toy slides or rolls over the non-resilient step
without tipping over (see Figure X).
After each tip-over, the toy shall be allowed to come to rest and shall be examined and evaluated before
continuing.
Toys supplied with anchors and intended to be permanently fixed (e.g. in concrete) when in use,
according to the manufacturer’s instructions, shall not be subjected to the tip-over test.
Determine whether the toy continues to conform to the relevant requirements of Clause 4
(Requirements).

Replace the existing B.2.1 with the following:
B.2.1 Good practice for visibility and legibility
The safety labelling should be in a clearly visible, easily legible, understandable, indelible and accurate
form wherever placed. For placement, see Clause 4.
Safety labelling and manufacturing markings should be in the language of the country in which the toys
will be distributed.
The safety labelling should be in a format that draws the attention of the consumer and should be placed
on the packaging and/or the product. Warnings that determine the decision to purchase the toy shall
appear on the consumer packaging or be otherwise clearly visible to the consumer before the purchase.
The following points provide information on good practice for the visibility and legibility of safety
labelling. The guidance document ISO/IEC Guide 37, Instructions for use of products of consumer interest,
has been considered and adopted where appropriate.
a) Emphasizing the warning:
— emphasize warnings, for example by placing them in a prominent position on the toy and/or its
packa
