What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The source states that two fire incidents occurred but no injuries have been reported. This is a fire hazard with confirmed incidents of the hazard manifesting, which meets the "High" criterion for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.
