--- puzzles having more than 500 pieces or without a picture, for specialists;
--- fireworks including percussion caps, except percussion caps specifically designed for toys;
--- products containing heating elements intended for use under the supervision of an adult in a teaching context;
---steam engines;
---video toys that can be connected to a video screen and operated at a nominal voltage greater than 24 V;

The materials and parts of toys applies to the combustion performance (4.2) and Annex B in this standard:
--are clothes worn by the child(disguise costumes), especially where capes, flowing dresses and similar articles are include
--a child could enter, such as play tents and play houses
--a child cuddles(filled soft toys)
--are worn but take the form of masks, wigs, etc.
Toys materials and parts applied to the migration of the given elements (4.3) and Annex C in this standard:
--Coatings of paints, varnishes, lacquers, printing links, polymers and similar coatings.
--Polymeric and similar materials, including laminates, whether textile-reinforced or not, but excluding other textiles.
--Paper and paper board, up to a maximum mass per unit area of 400 g/m2.
--Nature or synthetic textiles;
--Glass/ceramic/metallic materials, excepting lead solder when used for electrical connections.
--Other material, whether mass-coloured or not (e.g. wood, fibreboard, hardboard, bone and leather);
