Publicado el 2 de abril de 2002

Resumen

CPSC registra el retiro 02531, publicado el 2 de abril de 2002. Empresa responsable: Cadet Manufacturing Co., of Vancouver, Wash.; Unidades reportadas: About 19,000.

Qué peligro representa

When an RM or ZM model heatbox (replacing a ZA or RA model heatbox) is inserted into a ZAC wall can and wired through a fitting in the top-left wall can knock-out (see the picture), the RM or ZM model has the potential for continuous heater operation, regardless of thermostat settings or room temperature. This can cause the heater to overheat and catch nearby combustibles on fire.

Qué hacer

If the heater is part of the recall, stop using it immediately by turning it off at the electrical panel board (circuit breaker or fuse box). Consumers should contact Cadet to schedule a free repair. In July 2001, Cadet began directly notifying affected consumers who participated in the October 1997 and February 2000 heater recalls about this RM and ZM program and began arranging service calls.
