Funny warning labels

  • A label on a baby stroller warns: “Remove child before folding
  • A brass fishing lure with a three-pronged hook on the end warns: “Harmful if swallowed
  • A popular scooter for children warns: "This product moves when used."
  • A nine- by three-inch bag of air used as packing material cautions: "Do not use this product as a toy, pillow, or flotation device."
  • A flushable toilet brush warns: "Do not use for personal hygiene."
  • The label on an electric hand blender promoted for use in "blending, whipping, chopping and dicing," warns: "Never remove food or other items from the blades while the product is operating."
  • A digital thermometer that can be used to take a person's temperature several different ways warns: "Once used rectally, the thermometer should not be used orally."
  • A household iron warns users: “Never iron clothes while they are being worn”
  • A label on a hair dryer reads, “Never use hair dryer while sleeping”
  • A warning on an electric drill made for carpenters cautions: “This product not intended for use as a dental drill.”
  • The label on a bottle of drain cleaner warns: “If you do not understand, or cannot read, all directions, cautions and warnings, do not use this product.”
  • A smoke detector warns: “Do not use the Silence Feature in emergency situations. It will not extinguish a fire.”
  • A massage chair warns: “DO NOT use massage chair without clothing... and, Never force any body part into the backrest area while the rollers are moving.”
  • A cardboard car sunshield that keeps sun off the dashboard warns, “Do not drive with sunshield in place”
  • An “Aim-n-Flame” fireplace lighter cautions, “Do not use near fire, flame or sparks”
  • A label on a hand-held massager advises consumers not to use “while sleeping or unconscious”
  • A 12-inch rack for storing compact disks warns: “Do not use as a ladder.”
  • A cartridge for a laser printer warns, “Do not eat toner”
  • A 13-inch wheel on a wheelbarrow warns: “Not intended for highway use”
  • A can of self-defense pepper spray warns users: “May irritate eyes”
  • A warning on a pair of shin guards manufactured for bicyclists says: “Shin pads cannot protect any part of the body they do not cover.”
  • A snowblower warns: “Do not use snowthrower on roof.”
  • A dishwasher carries this warning: “Do not allow children to play in the dishwasher.”
  • A popular manufactured fireplace log warns: “Caution - Risk of Fire”
