🚨 **Important Safety Alert: Tumble Dryer Fire Risk** 🚨
Attention! If you own a Candy, Hoover, or Haier tumble dryer, this message is for you. The Office for Product Safety and Standards (OPSS) has issued an urgent warning for 85,000 units due to a significant fire risk. If you have one of these models, STOP using it immediately!
Brands impacted include Baumatic, Candy, Caple, Haier, Hoover, Lamona, Iberna, and Montpellier. Make sure to check your model and serial number online ASAP. If your appliance is affected, reach out to the manufacturer for a repair.
Earlier this year, Haier began a corrective action programme for 103,000 tumble dryers. However, OPSS halted it after concerns arose that initial modifications weren’t safe. Haier has now updated the solution and is contacting customers to arrange repairs.
Key advice:
– Don’t use your tumble dryer until it’s repaired.
– Unplug it if the plug is accessible.
An internal short circuit during normal operation could cause these machines to catch fire. Ensure your and your family’s safety by taking immediate action.
Stay safe and spread the word to anyone who might have these appliances! 🏠🔥
