✕ What triggers it
  • The bag opening measures 5 inches or more when flat and carries no suffocation warning [2]
  • The warning is present but not legible — insufficient font size or poor contrast against the bag [2]
  • The warning text does not match the mandated wording [2]
✓ How to prevent it
  • Print or label the warning on any bag with a ≥ 5 in opening (measured flat) [2]
  • Use the exact mandated wording (see 3) [2]
  • Place it in a prominent location with a legible font size for the bag [2]
  • Ensure the warning contrasts with the bag and surrounding print [2]
