Paragraph 5 F1
Skates, roller skates, online skates, skateboards, scooters and toy bicycles for children
Where these toys are offered for sale as toys, they must bear the following warning:‘Protective equipment should be worn. Not to be used in traffic’.
Moreover, the instructions for use must contain a reminder that the toy must be used with caution, since it requires great skill, so as to avoid falls or collisions causing injury to the user or third parties. Some indication must also be given as to recommended protective equipment (helmets, gloves, knee-pads, elbow-pads, etc.).
