BSH Home Appliances
Hazard: The cooking controls are miswired, which can pose a shock hazard to consumers.
Dynasty
Hazard: The ranges could tip-over if a heavy weight is placed on an open oven door, posing a risk of burn injuries from hot food or liquids in cooking containers.
Thermador All-Gas Professional
Hazard: Hot air is vented below the small oven and causes the metal surface on the door of this oven to get too hot, presenting a burn hazard to consumers.
Wolf and Wolf Gourmet residential
Hazard: Delayed ignition of gas in the ovens and broilers can put consumers at risk of burn injuries and fires.
Whirlpool
Hazard: These units can overheat and catch fire.
Amana Big Oven
Hazard: During the broil and self-clean modes, the range can emit high levels of carbon monoxide (CO), presenting the potential for CO poisoning to consumers. Additionally, during the broil and self-clean modes, the temperature of the storage drawer can become extremely high, presenting the risk of burn injuries to consumers. The ranges are safe to use for baking and for cooking on the surface burners.
Thermador combination thermal/
Hazard: The oven door may not lock properly when the oven is put into the "self clean" mode. While the oven is in "self clean" mode, intense heat is generated to clean the oven. If oxygen is introduced by opening the oven door during the "self clean" mode, combustible material left inside can ignite and pose a fire risk.
Crosley and Magic Chef
Hazard: Liquid can enter the indicator light and can cause sparking and flaming in the light, presenting a fire hazard to consumers.
Dynasty
Hazard: The igniters are too far from the burners, which can cause a delayed ignition of gas. The large amount of gas released can cause fire to escape from the oven, putting consumers at risk of burn injuries and house fires.
Maytag and Magic Chef
Hazard: The vent flue insulation can be out of position on these ranges. Using the broil or self-clean functions on these ranges can cause scorching or burning of the cabinetry around the range, posing a fire hazard.
