Built in ovens safety notice. Product recall due to potential fire risk.

There is a safety product recall involving built in ovens manufactured by Electrolux under the Electrolux, Moffat and Tricity Bendix brands. The issue involves single built in electric ovens (no product purchased before March 2007 is affected).

Quote: Our quality control programme has identified under certain circumstances there is a potential risk of fire whilst using the grill function on a limited number of Single Built In Electric Ovens branded Electrolux, Zanussi-Electrolux, Moffat and Tricity Bendix.

There are no details on the exact nature of the risk but they do say, “if your oven is affected you must ensure that you use the grilling function, with the oven door closed in line with the manufacturer’s instructions.” For more details including checking if your oven is affected and what to do if it is try these links -
