Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

  1. (a)

    they do not burn if directly exposed to a flame or spark or other potential source of fire;

  2. (b)

    they are not readily flammable (the flame goes out as soon as the fire cause disappears);

  3. (c)

    if they do ignite, they burn slowly and present a low rate of spread of the flame;

  4. (d)

    irrespective of the toy’s chemical composition, they are designed so as to mechanically delay the combustion process.

Such combustible materials must not constitute a risk of ignition for other materials used in the toy.
