What do they mean by Potential Head Entrapment Hazards?
Generally, openings that are between 3 ½ inches and 9 inches present a head entrapment hazard because they are large enough to permit a child's body to go through, but are too small to permit the head to go through. When children enter such openings, feet first, they may become entrapped by the head and strangle.
